Unless you're the captain of a 158-foot yacht, space is probably a hot commodity on your boat. So when you're packing for your next overnighter, try storing your bulky belongings in Samsonite Space Savers, resealable, soft-sided plastic pouches that can compress bulky items up to 50 percent. Space Savers are easy to use. You just place the items in the pouch and close the "zipper." Then you squeeze out all excess air through the one-way valve. You will be able to fit twice as many items, such as blankets and sweaters, in small storage spaces. And best of all, these pouches are not only airtight, but watertight as well, so your belongings stay protected from moisture. Space Savers come in three sizes to maximize efficient packing, and prices range from $9.99 to $14.99.
