My favorite for storage is five gallon buckets with lids they are water tight have a handle and most of all they are free. Any bakery or fast food place are usually glad to get rid of them. I've been using them for over thirty years never a problem. For my clothes and sleeping bag I put them in a garbage bag tie it shut them put everything in army dufflebags. Beats paying an arm and a leg store bought stuff. PS the buckets make good seats around the campfire

If your olive barrel is smelly then you did NOT clean it properly. Rinse, rinse, and rinse again. Use Vinegar rinses and Baking soda, and let it air out in the sun... We have two olive barrel packs (4 barrels per pack, held together with straps) which makes a great packing system and DOES NOT SMELL AT ALL. Multiple olive barrels are great for sorting: Breakfast foods go in one, Supper in another. We use them instead of stuff/dry sacks also for clothes/sleeping bags.

I like to have ALL my gear in two or max three packs. Easier to portage and keeps things together if you bail. With everything loose as shown here, you will create an open water yard sale if you go bottoms up

as boddah45 said, tie it down but make sure that it cannot flop out of the canoe while remaining attached to the canoe- if it does partially come out it makes t-rescues a whole lot harder as the baggage can hang up on the other boat.

Your system works for you, but mine is a bit different. I feel that if a backpacker can go into the wilds for two weeks, and carry everything he needs in a pack on his back, a canoeist should be able to closely mimic him. I splurge just a bit. I pack one backpack with everything I think I will need personally. I then pack another backpack with all my kitchen stuff (about 6 items total), then my meals food, and other editable items. If another person goes along, it's only one more backpack, and a little more food. It's especially easy that way if I should have to portage. Only two trips. One with the boat, paddles, and one backpack. Then one more trip with the other backpack. If I person itemizes everything they take each time, and makes a list of which items are used, then gets rid of anything they think they might need, but haven't used in three consecutive trips, they will find trips easier, and not so cluttered with gear that has to be carried, but is never needed.
