River Station Kayak Throw Bag is sized right for paddlers who need reliable rescue gear without extra bulk. The compact shape fits cleanly in a kayak cupholder, keeping it secure, accessible, and out of the way until you need it. It’s also a strong choice for packrafting, where space and weight matter.
