container size
Can anyone provide the approx container pack tray dimensions for a 245 or 265 sized canopy? I have obtained a velcro container with no markings or labels and would like to replace the cruiselite that is in it with a newer base canopy, but I am unsure what will fit.

peace and grease

Re: [gofastmax] container size
You should measure the container that YOU have, figure out the volume (a rough estimate should be fine.), and compare that to the canopy manufacturers data to the corrisponding canopy you desire. Remember a vented and valved canopy takes up more volume. I believe some canopies have longer line sets, thus increasing volume. This is all pretty easy to be done all by yourself and a few emails.
