Could I use an extra large duffle bag to store this? Any other ideas for transporting or storing?

An army laundry bag should be sufficient for the kayak itself (i.e. no pump or paddles), provided the kayak is cleaned, dried, and neatly rolled (NOT folded). Deflate completely flat, put the seats in the middle, fold sides of the kayak onto the floor into lengthwise thirds, then roll, TIGHTLY, from the front towards the back (where the plugs are). The resulting musubi/sushi shaped roll should fit neatly in any standard high capacity bag (2800+ ci), or a laundry bag. Duffel can be **OVERKILL** only if you're not packing a pump and breakdown paddles. Only other caveat about using a duffel bag, the internal seams of the bag can rub on the creased edges of the inflatable, causing minor scrapes & scratches that could possibly leak. That's why I suggest a laundry bag, the chances of this happening are much less.

Yes. I store one of my boats in a large duffle bag I had lying around. The main thing is to be sure the boat is dry and clean before any long term storage.

An extra large duffle bag would probably work. We just roll it up tight with the seats inside and wrap a bungy cord around it.

Easily! They role up pretty small. Easy breezy. I actually can fit mine in a ziplock sandwich baggie

I don't have my box anymore so I can't measure it's volume, but I think it is on the shipping information online. Since you can pump air OUT of it, it ends up at the same volume. I would make sure that paddles will fit (length) and have enough extra volume for your air pump.Get a shoulder strap for your duffle or visit a thrift store for a backpack.

I think the bed with the pump and cover and carrying bag weighs about 8-9 lbs. When I put it in a extra-large, rolling duffle, it seemed to take up close to half of the space in the duffle. But I think if I were to take the items out of the bag and lay them flat rather than rolled up, it would take up less space. The cover is what is kinda bulky if not folded well.

Like a tent, you can roll it up tight. It will fit in the saddle bag with room to spare.

No not really, it does store away better than a play yard. We have kept ours up the entire time it was used, there are probably better items if you are looking for portable. It would be the equivalent of taking another large suitcase

When it was delivered it was very tightly rolled. It would probably fit into a large duffle bag. I'm not sure about after you open it but probably with some effort. I didn't think it was too heavy.

I wouldn't think so. The bag is a thin mesh with no structure. I feel like you'd need one of those plastic laundry balls/casings.

Amazon has a nice basket you may purchase. I used a small canvas tote bag on the handle bars and it served me well both at home and work.

I couldn't get it back in the bag either, no matter how much help I got. I ended up getting a big enough duffle bag at walmart and separate compression sack ends to go with it. Either way about it, it takes up some room.

Think sturdy duffle bag for a tent not sleeping bag. Like the largest hockey duffle bag.

this is a very large bag and it might not work but it would be huge and take up a lot of space it might not give you much room to sit check the dimensions front to back if you are placing it in seat. If you are putting it on a luggage rack it needs ti be a very wide one or you can gheri rig something to widen your luggage rack the bag itself is terrific lots of space to pack a lot of clothes

They have there own cargo kit for this. It like a luggage looking bag. Just get a real metal rack it will last longer than this one.

It's pretty large. I don't think so. Maybe if you have a large duffle bag to put it in.

You can transport it.. but will require some tools but it is built really really strong. I don't think this would be something to use as a portable hanger rack. It's more of a permanent rack. There's other products out there to use as a portable that sets up quick and breaks down quick

Yes you can, be sure to bungee it down. The slot on the back makes it very EZ. Enjoy your bag.

There is a big carrying handle on the front that you could loop a cable-type bike lock through, if you had a post or tree close enough. The other option is to simply deflate it and take it with you. We have a rolling duffle bag that the kayak, pump and paddles all fit in, and we've occasionally bungeed the duffle to the back storage compartment so that we could take a one-way trip downstream and then take the kayak back with us on a bus.

You could probably push the bag in and then fold the extra over the sides. It wouldn't be a great fit but you could make it work. If you had a lot in the bag it might tear when you take it out of the pail.

I think you could make it work. When it came I believe the bag it was rolled into was already 75" wide and was rolled tightly length wise. With that being the case, I think it might be hard to open it in place (which would be ideal). It is pretty squishy, but like someone else said it is bulky and heavy. I think you could do it, but you will likely be cursing the whole time.
