When you go over or wind up in the water the one taped to your butt will tell we're your butt is. So then all you have to do is fight the sharks. So get some preserved shark repellent too. An tape that too.next is the life vests which come in the style that has straps.they keep your head up in the water. Not many guys go in the water in the " deep sea " less spear jockeys . You plan on going out to fish an do all you do to get there an then plan to jump in the water at the end of your trip. I bet not. So gear up and don't worry if you look like a walking lit flare cuz then and only then I would bet you make it back.
Next is the stuff for your crew. F um let them get there own stuff. LOL ya right bro get them the same gear you get your self. If you provide the opera unity for them to ware it then it's up to them to do so. You can't train a crawfish to scoot forward. Next is the kids well keep stuff on board from the start for kids. If you ain't got um or don't need um u still Gunna wind up in that situational .its better to have it than let a kid go without it. Next is the dog well unless you need big bait get one for the dog. It can swim but not for hours. And if it stays still less chance it gets eaten too.next is the .....oooops ok bro jus go with it. If its alive and moving prepare for it to be rescued. Or in the water for hours. Cuz only dumb luck Gunna get u if u go for an unscedualed swim.it will take a minimal of 3 hours at 50mils out .......take into account for drift etc from last reported location if you get the chance to make a report.

Don't jack around with safety or u Gunna get jacked.

A few hand held radios for at least 4 crew to b kept on person. Good to go.


Bro were the boat at in da driveway......check dem fire extenguishered deals regular. An don't parc too close to da house.

Set a standard and hold it if you got it on your boat for safeness then don't set foot on another that don't. Even if it's mamas boat. Jus tell her she ain't got the new and latest stuff I bet she gets it. You know how mama is.

Mama say get a roll of toilet paper jus in case too. Emergency happen everyware.
