How many attempts have you seen?

Timmy's bags aren't that great and the increase in stabiilty isn't spectacular
(in spite of photos showing folks standing up in their kayaks with them).
I tested them years ago and tried rolling with them as well. I used a rented
Solstice GTS and found the difference in rolling with/without was similar to the
difference in rolling the same kayak loaded/unloaded.
