Awesome pack!

I’ve had both the 30L and this backpack for years and they are still going strong. I use them for paddleboard camping and hiking. Although I’ve never dunked, my gear has stayed dry with waves coming overboard. The only two things I would appreciate added on would be a big stretchy mesh panel on the front for stashing a jacket, and hip pockets on the belt that are big enough for a snack and phone for when hiking. (I also had to rig the chest strap much further up than it goes because I’m a woman and have boobs that don’t like being squished), so maybe factor that in in the future designs too ;)
I really appreciate that this backpack doesn’t weigh a ton, can pack a lot into the big uncomplicated inside, fits my short torso, and keeps my stuff dry. Keep up the good work!

Great, except...

For a frameless pack this carries weight quite well. The hip strap does an adequate job of keeping the pack on the hips and minimizes shoulder strain. I haven't tested it for waterproofness, but considering it's construction I'm not worried. The pack closes like a dry bag and the top can be clipped together or you can roll the top and clip to straps on the side of the pack. The pack weighs about a kilogram which is excellent considering the strength of the material. The front pocket is a little hard to use, Don't load it up with bulky items, I'm going to use it for first aid gear.
There are two things that would make the pack perfect. The first is a useable water bottle pouch that can be accessed with the pack on. The side pockets are elastic and hold quite a bit and there is a compression strap that goes around them, but they are not accessible while wearing the pack. Consider buying a pouch that clips to the shoulder or hip strap. The second thing is small pouches (or even just one pouch) on the hip strap for snacks. Not a big deal, consider adding a thigh pouch or fanny pack. One thing that makes up for most of the downsides in the price. This pack is excellent value.

Best yet

I live & work in Caribbean, and drag my overloaded bag around daily, on and off boats, under the fiercest UV you can imagine. My previous two 30L Aquaquest (red/grey now called the Spindrift) lasted over 2 years each, getting utterly hammered, with the last one still going. This 45L has everything the 30L does and more - better pockets, access, fasten-down, and can compact down to the same size or stretch to carry a serious amount of kit. Very tough, durable. My only improvement might be to rubberise/coat the bases to give a little extra scuff protection (boat decks are usually painted with an abrasive grip layer).
Also very comfortable on a bike or motorcycle, as I use it for Enduro riding as well. Hope they keep making this model for years to come. Love the solid blue too.

I purchased this bag mainly for cycling.

I purchased this bag mainly for cycling. Yesterday I was caught in a severe thunderstorm. Everything on me was wet. I pulled out the contents of this bag and everything was bone dry including laptop, ipad, and phone. I took away a star because I found the hip straps annoying while cycling. I eventually cut them off but I wish there was a way to just tuck them in a pocket like I've seen in other backpacks.
