I have one installed on my WBBB, made a bishop bag large enough to hold everything like you are wanting. Always kept my tarp seperate...... if needed it could be deployed if not never hung it. The BBO would keep the early morning dew off me during the night. Used the Dutchclip/webbing suspension for the hammock suspension. When I reaaly wanted to pack up quick I used the BB wing cords to reef everything together. Made it super quick to load everything in the bishopbag.
Yup, I think the BBO is what I'm looking for!

That video of Jackleberry is really close to what I want, and I like the bishop bag idea, but it's not waterproof. I'll have to stick to the dry bag with the purge valve.
This will work out great in my canoe. The whole package is on the large size but it will still fit nicely in the canoe.
The kayak on the other hand has problems with the girth of the package, too big to fit into the hatches! I might have to shed some bulk somehow for this boat .....
I will carry a tarp anyway, just in case, but packed separately. I always run into some serious weather somehow, so just got to stay prepared.
the "Gone in 60 seconds" concept is getting closer for me! though it appears I'm not the only one on this quest, cool. I think we'll have to have a series of videos of us showing off our Fast Getaways. You got 60 seconds ladies and gentlemen, start your engines! Go! ..... don't blink! .....and you're gone ........
