I am looking to install a glove box in my boat, but I would like it to be water proof. Anybody know where I can find one? Or, better yet, are the glove boxes here on iBoats water tight?

Re: Water-tight Glove box

99% of glove boxes are not really water tight. I use a good old military ammo can and that is water tight. I actually have a few plastic versions too that are equally water tight.

Depending on what you need to keep dry..... a good quality zip lock bag or two also works. Put your wallet into a bag and toss that into the glovebox with no worries...... cheap too.

I don't really know of a water tight glove box. You can pick up something like a pelican box in several sizes and they are water tight and will usually float unless the items inside are too heavy.

Pelican boxes are nice and quality stuff. There pricey compared to using a zip lock bag though.
