Harken helps you stay organized from the plane to the boat with the new 3-in-1 Rolling Carry-On and the Transition Backpack. The Transition makes it easy to haul your wet and dry gear in a single bag, while the Carry-On is a multipurpose bag you can take anywhere. You can transform it from a backpack into a wheeled bag or a handy carry-on.
“Many sailors spend a lot of time on the road, and the 3-in-1 Rolling Carry-On eliminates the hassle of carrying extra bags. You can pack just the essentials in the daypack and separate it from the main bag when you don’t need to take much,” says Sailing Gear design and production manager Heidi Harken. “With the Transition, we adopted the ease and simplicity of a regular backpack and tailored it to meet the needs of sailors on the go.”
A mesh drying compartment in the Transition backpack lets you easily separate shoes or wet gear from other important dry items. It features a padded laptop sleeve, water bottle pockets, and a sunglasses pouch that doubles as a cleaning cloth. The 3-in-1 Rolling Carry-On includes a laptop sleeve as well as water-resistant zippers and a moisture-wicking handle. Stowable backpack straps, durable wheels, and a telescoping handle make the 3-in-1 the utility knife of sailing luggage.
