What's in your PWC ditch bag?

[showmepro1200]

Good list but also none of that does any good if you fall off your ski and can't get back to it. Just something to keep in mind

What about the phone, whistle and beacon he said was in the pocket of his PFD??

And the PLB is probably the most useful. These are cheap enough now there is no excuse not to have one. I took mine with me this past week hiking in Costa Rica. They are also good for land use too.

Yeah, not sure how useful it is but it was cheap enough.

Sucked in some debris from all the runoff in Rocky River. I can say the paddle came in handy! I was able to get back by limping, towing and then paddling after the tower didn't want to go any farther. I was later able to extract the pieces of stick from the front of the impeller with a 16" pair of needle nose I bought at Auto Zone. The pieces came off easy once I let the ski set over night and let the wood dry out.

A oar which disassembles to 3 short pieces, sure beats paddling with your hands. A whistle to attract attention, and a 3 pak of handheld flares (nothing works better to let other know your in distress) as told by my local police. A small bilge pump looks like a air pump sure beats a Dixie cup every time. A ski rope so someone can tow you in. Small bottle of Dawn liquid dish soap to keep the bilge clean add when you launch drain at home. Most important tell a friend where your going to be and when to expect you to return!
