    Default On the water tool list


    Hi Everyone,
    Yesterday i ran over a 3ft half rotted tree limb.
    Didn't see it at all. I was going very slowly so no damage at all.
    But it was lodged between the prop and skeg. Wouldn't budge. I had to tie up to a dock and pull the prop. I barely had enough tools.
    1 adjustable wrench
    1 needle nose pliers
    Got it done, but i could use a list of tool i should have onboard.
    If I'd had a small hand saw i could have cut it off .

    Yikes! Glad you got it fixed.
    I do carry a small toolbox, however all my tools to change a prop are in the truck.
    Time to add to my boat box.

    That could have been disastrous. Glad everything worked out.

    Great reminder that I need to re-evaluate.

    Add a pair of channelocks, vise grips and a small electrical repair kit.
