Unless they changed them, NRS's nylon bags are a very light grey.

Inside scoop on NRS bags... wait until spring... they are upgrading all their bags to a newer-tougher style... and I'm guessing they will be putting the olds ones on clearance.

I still feel the Voyaguer lightweights are the best (and lightest) on the market... and I'm guessing Chris wants to maintain that light weight in his shiny new Kaz boat. :D

I don't know what happened to Harmony (wait, I do - they got conglomerated), but you might still be able to find a set of those around. I've found them at Sierra Trading Post and most recently at the GAF flea market. Those can be had in red and teal. You know there has to be a couple of sets sitting in shop somewhere.

I take it that you are looking for *not* yellow so your new yellow boat won't be called "the big banana"?

There is a pair of 60" Headwaters Bags (Teal) and a pair of 36" Harmony (Red) bags on eBay right now. These are all new in the bag.

I got a fresh pair of the red harmony bags for my Quake last month for $15.00 ea. w/ 7.00 shipping. There was a pair of 54" dark blue voyageur bags on last week but they are gone now.

Keep checking eBay, these NOS bags show up often.

8) Yeah, Doug, but if Chris doesn't want yellow, he isn't going to want purple either......

......Not that there's anything wrong with that.....

Once Mohawk is up and running. we should be able to buy airbags from them again. Blue, red, teal, purple, and yellow.

All we need now is camo to match his Honor's boat.
