T-BAG is the one that seems to work best here in NC.

I use the T-Bag too from Bass Pro Shops and it works great. If you go to my gallery (page 3) you can actually see it in action.

I too have the large T-Bag. I mounted mine at the rear of the top, behind my head when seated. I am too tall to have it hung in front, it blocked my vision. Holds plenty of PFDs with small pockets for lots of other stuff.

I have/had a BoatMates T-bag from Boaters World that dissentigrated (ripped and zipper tabs broke off) while being trailered to the coast and lost my Lawstick and handle to my SureMarker Bouy. It was about $35 and may have lasted longer if I trailered the boat with life preservers IN the bag to keep it from flapping. Also, that bag had straps to plastic D rings which didn't look like they would last a long time. Gotta T-Bag to try out this year.

I have the T-bag... I have trailered it thousands of miles and have had no problems with it at all.. and with the last trip it was a block of ice along with the rest of the boat when we got home

Someone posted a pic at the old site that showed a T-top w/ a net material stretch across the bottom side to store PFD'S.

Ive copied this concept on my T-top and it works well for me.
Ive tried the t-bags and other models of t-top bags, but they always seem to hang to low, even when I tighten the straps till they broke.

I wanted some-way of storing PDF's w/o it bouncing on my head. The net thing works for me.

Try the T-bag, if it bounces on your head, return it. ha ha

I have seen a picture of someone that placed their t-bag on the froward part of their t-bag. It didnt bounce on the head there. I also had to try a couple ways to strap mine up before I found one way that kept it pretty high outof the way, but it works great

I've used nets for the last 4 years and have been very happy with them. The nets I use are the truck/tailgate/SUV nets from Walmart. I think they were like $8 a piece. I use 3 - have 4 life vests packed in the back net, 2 in the middle net, and leave the front one (all are behind the electronic box) empty for jackets, shirts, towels, etc. I use a bunch of wire ties (i.e. one every 6 inches or so) to keep them up and just leave a gap on each side on the front of each net, to take things in and out of them. Four years later, the nets are still in great condition - just had to replace some of the wire ties. Of course, this setup will depend on how your t-top frame is made - i.e. I have a bunch of horizontal bars on the back 2/3rds of the t-top, whereas some t-tops have them running mainly bow to stern.
