I agree. Takes balls to show your mistakes/misfortunes/luck. I just extended my budget this year because of this thread, and to be honest, slightly embarrassed I did not do this when I got the boat. It's different when you see first hand how fast chit can go wrong. I hope never to use any of it.
Just ordered:
ACR RapidDitch Express Bag
ACR AquaLink™ View PLB-350C (epirb next year)
Standard Horizon HX290 Floating Handheld VHF Radio
that "goo" from West Marine
adding a high water alarm
and a hand operated bilge pump.
Strobe Light, air horn, whistles, reflectors, mirror, new life jacket ditch bag pack.
All that plus what I have now, flares, first aid, etc, is going in the bag.
All this for under 1K which the lives of my friends and loved ones is certainly worth more.
