What do you take out on the water with you when you sail your 2.4 Meter?
I see the NOR for the US Nationals recommends a VHF. That makes sense. I will be able to hear my over-early recalls.
I assume most sailors take water or some sort of beverage if they are out there for a while. What about lunch?
A length of rope for emergency towing is required. I hear wearing a life jacket actually helps with the comfort level of the seat and I’d take that anyway.
What about a Praddle? A red protest flag? A whistle?
Do you leave the lifting harness in the car or stuff it behind the seat? What am I missing?
Where does all of that stuff go? Post replies on this site by leaving a comment using the link below.
A smile and to act like you are 17 years old is a good start!
(1) I always take a good knife.
(2) a short piece of 1/8” line for repairs and 25’ nylon tow line (it will stretch to absorb shock of poor power boat operator).
(3) Water and some thing to eat.
(4) My lifting harness is permanently attached and goes under the seat.
(5) I don’t think the class calls for a “red protest flag”. But I am not big on protests anyway.
(6) There is a small storage compartment under the dash in my boat but the best “zip lock” baggies are a must.
