I will leave room now , for others to add what they think is important to have on board all the time.. For? Just In Case Situations ..
This list Might, be insightful for New Sailors??

Got kids? Then you will need a portable DVD player.

We use the set that is meant to hang off of the back of the head rests on cars. We'll never step foot on SerenityNow w/o it ever again.

I think with a 1/5

of Jerry Sailor Rum and a bucket of Patience we wouldn't even need that rope

"...cannon report (in triplicate)"... awesome!

an interesting topic, it's been extensively discussed by Jerome K. Jerome in his book "Three Men in a boat", chapter IV

I believe I may have to read that one after I finish "The Complete Sailor"...appears to be of great interest...British humour and boating in the same book...spot on.

Not in any particular order... bottle opener (beer), corkscrew, SUDOKU, guitar...

What Kind of Guitar ?? I sure am tempted to take a small amp and My Washburn Delta King along. I doubt My Hofner Very Thin ever gets even close to making a trip.. I have thought and talked about getting a New Composite body?? OR Maybe Fenders Strat-acoustic Electric? with a hard PVC Case and a couple cotton bags full of rice for moisture???

I've just recently taken up the guitar again, my last attempt some 20 years ago didn't last long. I've got a Fender acoustic. I'd think that a graphite acoustic would be good for use in the marine enviroment.

Similar thread came up on a woodworking forum a few years ago, "...most important tool in the shop?" on the boat it's the same tool.... your Brains, Then the Rum
