Overboard….. Keep It Dry!

The roots of the OverBoard story are on the Thai island of Phi-Phi. Among the diving shops. Overboard’s founders – Dan and Joel – found the yellow waterproof bag that was to change our lives. For weeks the guys had fought to protect our iPods, mobile phones, money and such, from the ravages of water and sand. Not easy in view of how much sailing, leaping from boat to boat-taxi, surfing, and hanging out on the wet deck of dive boats we’d been doing. Now, thanks to their new yellow friend, everything was protected and dry. But more was to change than that.
