Pelican Waterproof Marine Cases

I've used a "waterproof" marine tool kit on small boats, and most are merely water resistant. Eventually, the water and salt get in, and your tools get ruined. I went through lots of tools. I could not find a tool box that could survive on a small boat and keep the tools separate from the water and salt.

I gave up and bought a Pelican box. It's worth every penny. My Pelican marine box is sturdy and completely airtight, not just waterproof. I have had mine for ten years now, and the only time water got in was on one occasion when I inadvertently closed a plastic tie-wrap in the lid, preventing the gasket from sealing. Before I bought the Pelican box, my tradition was to find out that my tools were rusty and unusable when I actually needed them. It's nice to open up my Pelican case knowing all will be well inside.

There a lot of Pelican cases available in different sizes for just about any purpose, not just boating. Most Pelican cases come with foam inserts to protect your digital camera, video camera, or other gear. Most of them come with the "pick-n-pluck foam insert" that allow you to create exactly the number and size of the "holes" to fit and protect your specific gear.
