THE BAG LADY

The Bag Lady is a company that is devoted to prolonging the life of your canoe. Boat Bags are durable covers (see pic below) that protect the hull of your canoe from the elements. Previous owners attest to less darkening and aging of Kevlar, less oxidation on fiberglass, less drying of Royalex, shiny surfaces being maintained, less wear on wood canvas, and a higher resale value... proving bags are worth the cost. Bags are made of polyester fibers, which is excellent against ultraviolet damage and the effects of the environment. Your bag will experience some fading but better the bag get beat up than your boat. Face it, your boat is your baby. Take care of it.

BEWARE OF IMITATORS! LOOK FOR THE BAG LADY LOGO. Bag Lady BAGS ARE ONLY AVAILABLE FROM THE BAG LADY!

June 15th, 2009 Susan Audette- Just to let you know, I finally covered the Seneca up with your bag you made and its perfect. I can tell it wasn't your first. Great job! Thank you very much. If you need a pic, let me know.

received the cover Thursday around 6:00pm and opened it out on the porch. My wife used to make all her own clothes and commented on the excellent workmanship – zigzag stitching and double faced at ends for greater strength. Very nice! Finally stopped raining, so I got to put it on the canoe today – great fit!

The canoe cover you have sent is simply perfect, fits snuggly and looks cool. I cannot understand how you were losing sleep with the attention to detail and workmanship you have put into my cover. But now that it is over I hope you are able to relax about it. I will send photos the next time I get to the workshop.

Thanks again - best wishes Nick

Hi Sue,

I know it's almost 2 years later, but I kept meaning to show you how well the Minnisota 4 cover you made fits. Like a glove.

Thanks again,Paul K

OCT. 24TH from Paul P. Got the package. It fits just fine. This is the second cover I've gotten from you. The first was for a J-200 some years back. As always, first class. Thank you very much.

and this one this summer is a doozy...Hi Sue:
The good news is that someone in Fla. liked your bag so much that they stole mine. That's the bad news, as well.
I have a Savage River XX C-! 18'6"
I would like the brightest, most outrageous happy colors in the world, like yellow, red and blue or a patch work of bright stuff.
Thx, Sue

Sept. 4 Sue, Realized I never wrote back and let you know the canoe bag fits WONDERFULLY! My Prism has never been happier. Thanks again for a great product.- Nate
,,.a repeat customer ...

I had no problem at all with the cover and my partner loved the racing stripes .... the clips I referred to are those attached to bungees going to the draw cord. My first cover (probably 1989) came with metal hooks and without bow and stern reinforcement where the cloth failures finally did
occur. I was pleased to find the top bow slit was still there and even a bit longer....I find it to be an important aid in pulling on the cover. The double paddle cover with the top draw string and handle straps was very nice and has also evolved over the years. Again, thanks for the well thought out products. Bill T.

Sue, The bags arrived today, they fit beautifully as always, the yellow, purple combo on top of my truck, is certainly a show stopper, I love dealing with you & the quality of your work is the greatest. Thanks always, David H

It fits just right and delivery was so fast. You provide a well-designed, high-quality product. When I'm feeling wealthy enough, I'll be ordering one for another of my boats.

Sue,
The canoe cover arrived and is wonderful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We made no mistake in having you make us the cover!! We really appreciate it and know that it will extend the life of the canoe. The green color is perfect! The fit is perfect!! I can't say enough good about it. Thank You! Thank You! We will definitely share where we got the cover for anyone who may be interested! Hoping your summer is a nice one. --Cathi

I know you are on vacation but I have to tell you it was a perfect fit. I put it on the canoe and then , put it on the Subaru and took off at about 75 and it just hummed along.

You should be very proud of your workmanship and accuracy. I will wear it with pride to the big Wooden Boat Show in Alexandria, Minnesota. You betcha !!

Many thanks for the canoe bag in forest green for my Wenonah Adirondack. I just got a chance to put it on, as we had a blizzard this past week with 30" of snow. The canoe cover fits perfectly, looks terrific, and I love the overall design. You have thought of everything - right down to the little "fly" in the bow, where a line can exit the cover to tie the canoe to the front grill of my Ford Ranger when car-topping.

The color is perfect - quiet and unobtrusive. The canoe will blend right into the evergreens that are in back of the canoe rack.

Dear Bag Lady,
Just got our Northwind canoe cover yesterday (Gary Wi. order, but I'm the one that tracked you down). It is fabulous, fits like a glove, and definitely well worth the price!

Nothing else on my web search even looked remotely close. I was afraid I'd have to make one myself, but that would be reinventing the wheel, for me.

I am really happy with it, and I'm damn picky.
Thanks very much for a great product.

"Sue:
I have put the beautiful cover that you made on my Old Town canoe. It looks great and is designed so well that it both fit perfectly and was easy to slip over the canoe and fasten securely. I am also very grateful for your delivery to me as scheduled and well before my departure date from here. Great job! "

and...Dear Sue. As always I'm the envy of the boat ramp. Your products are great. These two bags fit perfectly. You might want to send me some brochures to hand out as I was mobbed by some surf-ski types who wanted bags for their boats. You are the best, don't ever change. Sincerely, Riley. from CA

and fits beautifully. We are delighted with it. Forest Green is a lot less visible in my yard than the Ultralight Kevlar Yellow was! ... You must add CLIPPER Canoes to the list of those manufacturers for whom you produce this excellent product. Thank again. Reg H. Victoria, B. C. Canada.

Paddle bags: The Bag Lady also makes the best paddle bag in the business. Each bag is made of Polar Fleece (coated nylon also available) from that great manufacturer in the East who was the originator of Polar Fleece-by contract we can't say their name. The bag closes with a drawstring, has a handle and small hanger from which it can hang. Most importantly, each bag will carry two paddles. The paddles are lovingly protected by a barrier of Vellux velour which divides the bag. Bags come in a black, royal blue, or purple, occasionally other choices and are available for canoe paddles and breakdown kayak paddles as well. Cost is $35.00 for bent shaft paddle up to 54 inch length, slightly more for straight shaft paddles (specify length), and $40.00 on depending on options for breakdown kayak paddles. Fleece colors vary, call for color choices. Many in stock. Bags that hold multiple paddles can also be constructed.

Paddle bags can also be made of nylon coated fabric if you wish. Just let us know and we will gladly help.

Tiller and rudder bags for your sailboat are also available if you wish. The Bag Lady will be happy to help with your custom project, heck, she recently did a Golf Cart! Soon to attempt a tractor bag. We will let you know how it turns out.

AND CHECK HERE SOON FOR SOME OVERSTOCKS AND SECOND QUALITY BAGS. Little imperfections but still a great cover.
