I have an older odyssey and was wondering if anyone has had any luck using the gear buckets and hatch bag on the older non-twist and seal hatches. I'm not interested in the expense involved with retrofitting the hatches. |

You can easily update to the bag... there is a kit #5421 which adds a lip to hang the bag on. You can not fit a gear bucket in there though. |

As always, thanks for the quick and accurate input! I got lucky and the a hobie dealer happened to have a bag kit in stock yesterday, so I dropped it in the 6" hatch last night and that will work out well for holding keys/wallets/phones in a small dry box that I have. We've done the 10 mile trip from the local canoe livery a couple times, and are looking at doing the 20 mile run in the near future, but always have issues with dry bags sliding around in the hull and becoming a pain to retrieve when needed. Since the buckets won't work out on the older 8" hatch, does anyone have suggestions for solving that issues at the other end? |

My hatch has a hole in the lip which I tie a lanyard to retain the drybag. |
