Am looking for a means to store and transport my U/W Gear and was wondering about the Pelican Style hard cases with the pluck n pull foam.
How did you decide which way to go? Soft padded case or hard case?
I have used the soft padded cases as I find they are easy enough to clean and wash. Also they can easily be adapted to different gear configurations
Have been looking at some pelican cases and was wondering if the weight is worth the added protection. I love the way it all sets up and the foam insert can be customized to a very snug fit.
Has anyone had problems with the foam "crumbling" ? I was also wondering if it can be washed without the blocks falling apart. I imagine that there is potential for soiling when the cases is opened in the field whether it be from salt spray or other cause.
Does anyone still use ice chests with the gear wrapped on towels packed inside?
