"Rite in the Rain": Baby-Proof, Too!

December 6th, 2008 · by Tim Flanagan, Managing Editor

I’ve written before about how much I appreciate Rite in the Rain all-weather paper products. I used one for my log aboard Two Lucky Fish, and I carry another smaller one with me every day.

But today, we put a sheet to the ultimate test!

Here’s Blake, 7-month-old offspring of Navagear founder and publisher Aaron. Blake likes paper. He doesn’t write on it. He crumples it and gnaws on it. Sheets of normal paper last about two minutes before some conscientious adult feels obligated to fetch all the goopy bits from his mouth and throw them away.

 

The Rite in the Rain paper Blake is clutching in his right hand has been actively used for about half an hour.

Once he finally relinquished it, it looked…pretty good, actually! Great products.

    I use these notebooks all season long on the Vessel Assist boat. Couldn’t imagine not doing so.

    What a GREAT product testimonial from little Blake! We are honored and enjoyed seeing our Rite in the Rain paper survive one of the harshest real world tests available :-) We thought the Dangerous Catch guys gave RITR a test but Blake’s half an hour gnawing surpasses that. Merry Christmas from team Rite in the Rain..we all enjoyed the photo.

    PS. Maybe our new products team ought to contact Toys-R-Us?

    Being the modern grandmother I am, I sent Tim’s web site to a Board of Directors in which I participate. One member that also is quite active in horicultural activities reported that she uses the Rite in Rain notebooks to record her gardening activities, and advocates their use for that purpose for their durability.
