Grab Bag

[Guest]

Time to check and repack my grab bag and I think I will upgrade the bag to one of these I found for sale on ebay. I am thinking the 15 litre so there is room for some Brandy.

PLB, Spare glasses, Torch, Flares, (especially smoke) first aid kit, spare pants (you'll be needing them straight away) credit/debit card, your car and house keys, cats in another big bag. Your life raft / tender should also have it's own emergency stuff like repair kit, bailer etc already on board. Earmuffs for when the Sea King comes.
