How waterproof is the Elite Bags SAILS First-Aid Bag?

The SAILS bag uses a combination of ultrasonically welded seams (which eliminate any stitching that could leak), TPU tarpaulin material, and a roll-and-clip watertight closure to achieve full waterproof protection. The design is suitable for sustained rain, water rescue environments, boat decks, and similar wet conditions where standard nylon medical bags would fail to protect contents.

What modules are included with the Elite Bags SAILS Waterproof First-Aid Bag?

The SAILS includes four removable color-coded module pouches. These are the same Elite Bags module design as sold separately in the EB09.017 Four Colored Module Bag Set — featuring clear transparent tops for instant visual inventory and Velcro hook-and-loop backing for secure attachment inside the bag. The modules enable MARCH-protocol-based organization of emergency medical supplies.

What is the capacity and size of the Elite Bags SAILS bag?

The SAILS Waterproof First-Aid Bag measures approximately 42.5 × 33.5 × 13 cm (16.9″ × 13.8″ × 5.1″) with a capacity of approximately 18.5 liters. At 3 lbs (1,361 g) unloaded, it is a medium-sized bag designed to hold the four color-coded module pouches plus additional kit items — sufficient for a comprehensive first responder or trauma loadout.

Is the SAILS bag made with PVC material?

No. The Elite Bags SAILS is constructed from TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) tarpaulin material, which is PVC-free. TPU offers the same waterproofing performance as PVC while being more environmentally responsible and free of the chemical concerns associated with PVC production. The material is also highly durable and resistant to puncture, abrasion, and UV degradation.

What environments is the Elite Bags SAILS designed for?

The SAILS was specifically designed for maritime and water rescue (SAR swimmers, Coast Guard, river rescue), wildland EMS, flood and disaster response, adventure medicine (kayaking, white-water, jungle operations), and any wet-weather rescue environment. Its reflective night/day banding also makes it suitable for nighttime water rescue operations where bag visibility is critical.
