I’m gearing up for an end of year trip
am looking for recommendations on double board bags that fit 2 boards plus 3-4sails/1 boom/2 masts

so far mfc and simmer are on my radar.

Yep.. i’ll be taking harness in luggage and may be able to get 1 sail in another board bag… all the gear is carbon and light weight so a little under your figures but as you point out, it’s gonna be tight.. other option. Is just need to pay excess but agree, ideally undef 32kg the goal.

plus, i need gear to fit.. might buy a board at destination to use there and then bring home.

I'd stay away from roller bags when flying as those bags are considerably heavier so you'll loose another kg or 2.

Generally your choice will be limited by what's available if your in Oz.

Also, have you considered renting if available at the destination? I know nothing beats having your own gear, but traveling light is quite nice and the money spent on new bags might cover the first 2 or 3 days of rental.

If you go roller bag, severne is the lightest.

Good call. Is lighter. Could be worth getting the race size to allow a bit more room for wave gear.
the simmer is 5kg. Severne is 4.3kg for the bigger bag.
