Where do you get the coupons? I receive Sierra Trading Post emails occasionally, but they don't have coupon codes.

Yeah, I agree, superglue works wonders. I also had Smokey dress a braid cut that was nearly down to the bone on my index finger, then cut up a heavy duty dish glove for a finger-cot and taped that over it.

I was fishing 10 minutes later.

I also agree with the single sided razors and mini bolt cutters.

One night last spring at the canal I was digging around in my car for my headlamp and "found" a box cutter blade I didn't know I was missing. I found it when the corner stuck me in the knuckle to the bone. Luckily I was with Timmah and he had one of his wife's feminine pads in the car. I wrapped it up and put duct tape around it. Worked great till it started raining and it fell off. Super glue worked great to close it up and once it was dry, a paper towel and good 3m medical tape were the only thing that worked. Shoulda went and got a few stitches, but the bite was too good to leave.

At a minimum I would have, Gauze, alcohol wipes, super glue, good medical tape (not dollar store crap, ask me how I know) duct tape, a 2 pair of disposable gloves and benadryl

Did you sign up for the deal flyers? Perhaps it's because I'm a good customer...I almost always have a 35% off or 30% off w/free ship deal going.

I only get emails every couple of months. Honestly, I think I've only made one purchase from them. I'll go on the site tomorrow and sign up for the deal emails.

Pretty sure I was there for one of them. Was it Jeff?

Duct tape is key. No matter how bad the injury, duct tape and other junk laying around the boat will be able to provide "first aid" until you get help from the pros.

Always good to have one of these in your kit. Two are better though.
