We have moved from the boat to RVing, and there are a lot of differences in the two. I can tell you things move around in the RV a lot more than the boat. I have ordered two sets of the reusable plastic zip bags with the hope of freeing up the space used by all the ZipLoc boxes. Thanks for the help, and I will continue to use The Boat Galley for our RVing needs.
