While getting ready for an out of state fishing trip I decided to pull everything out of the boat, organize things (I do not clean but I will organize) and make it ready for the trip.

The waterproof Plano box sure felt heavy coming out the hatch from under the front deck. Somehow the seal had blown out even though it is recessed in the lid lip. The waterproof box was no longer waterproof and full of water!Thankfully I had the aerial flares tightly sealed in a ziploc bag. Wrong. The bag failed too. Thankfully the handheld flares were sealed in a ziploc bag. Wrong. Thankfully the electrical fuses were in a ziploc bag....damn.

This trip is getting expensive and I haven't even filled up the gas tank yet [sad]

I don't think it's intended for body parts
