For those with the Nex 5/5N camera and Nauticam housing, what do you carry all of it in?

I just received my Ys-D1 strobe/tray/arm setup to use with my nex 5n housing, and now I'm realizing I have no idea how to carry all of it. Had previously just used the box the Nex-5N housing came in and a separate camera bag for the Nex, but with all this extra equipment, I'm out of room!

Looking for any suggestions and specific models that will hold all of this.

Nex 5N camera
Nauticam 5N housing
Ys-D1 strobe
Fiber cable
2 Arms
3 clips
2 handle tray
 
I went to K-Mart and got a cheap $20 soft ice cooler with a long shoulder strap. It is very padded due to the insulation and it has a front pocket for little things. Its perfect for transporting and the dive boat because it can get wet and fits right under the bench. I don't like putting my camera in the camera bin with 3-4 other cameras so the cooler comes into play and I can keep a bottle of gatorade cold at the same time.
 
I'm using a soft cooler made by AO Coolers to carry my rig. I use it as a carry-on when traveling and then use it to transport the rig and as my "personal rinse tank". I got one of the models with a vinyl exterior, not the cordura. Pretty happy with it.
 
ended up picking up a lowepro roller to house everything + putting computers in it. perfect carry on size to fit in the overhead bin on planes. thanks to everyone who contributed! I appreciate the input!
