What do you have in your Grab Bag

[Chris]

So what do you carry in the event of having to leap from your burning rib

I guess :

Handheld VHF
Mars Bars
Water
Personal flares
Picture of codprawn

[Chris]

I guess a torch would be necesary so you could look at said picture

[Pete7]

Sun glasses

[Tim M]

Corkscrew

Seriously though, torch with spare batteries and bulb, thermal blankets, first aid kit, signalling mirror, flares, glow sticks. I don't actually have grab bags - both of my RIBs have life rafts which contain all of this stuff.

EPIRB
knife,
led torch,
strobe light attached to outside of bag,
survival blankets

I'm with you on the bag - that's a no-brainer. You'll have to tell me what the matches are for though?

You should probably replace those; they're about 10 years out of date now

I've usually got some of the above in said bag, also always carry a diving mask, just in case I need to stick my head under the boat for some reason
