A caution on the gerry cans: in a sea they will get wet and you could very possibly get some water in them. In a storm they may be taken off, and anything tied to them. I read an article about them a while back... in Ocean Nav I think. They are a cheap solution, not the best solution.

Bladders are better and safer - but more time consuming, more difficult to install, take up more useable space, and are more expensive. Still, that is likely what I will use too.
