Difference between lightweight and heavyweight drybags?

Posted on by andy macauley
I live on a sailboat, and we’re taking it around the world. Looking for the best completely waterproof duffle bag to haul laundry, groceries, etc. to and from the sailboat. What is the difference between your heavyweight and lightweight duffel bags? Would the heavyweight last longer?  
Hello and thank you for your enquiry.
 
Yes the Heavyweight is indeed likely to last longer, because it is made in a thicker, tougher material.
