Basking Bag: Like The Aunt Who’s Always Tidying

Basking Bag

Mar 25, 2025

Many boat owners use a plastic grocery bag for trash, and heap dirty laundry and wet towels in a corner. Savvy boaters who prefer a clean deck and versatile storage solutions opt for the Innovation Award-winning Basking Bag from SeaSucker. Mounted temporarily when and where it’s needed, the convenient accessory removes instantly for relocation, stowage, or toting to a trash bin for emptying.

Made in the USA, the Basking Bag installs using 4.5″ SeaSucker Vacuum Mount. Because it adheres to any non-porous surface, it’s ideal for mounting on the hull when partying on a sandbar. It’ll support up to 120 pounds of bottles, cans, soaked beach towels or whatever else needs securing — even with jostling from waves and wakes.

Available in blue/white or black/black, the SeaSucker Basking Bag is a 27.5″ x 18.5″ x 6″ fabric bag with a unique closure system that seals in its contents but opens with a simple tug of the large pull ring. The Standard model is constructed with a sturdy marine-grade mesh fabric, stainless steel hardware and UV-stabilized polymers. The Premium version is similar but uses a more tightly woven material. They cost $165 USD and $179 USD respectively. www.seasucker.com

An anchoring system has two parts: the anchor itself and the rode which connects the anchor to the boat. To be effective, an anchor must have good holding power, and the rode must be strong enough to withstand the strains that are put on it.
