I went from Cub Scout up to Boy Scout in the 70s and 80s. My Scout Leaders were Ex Military from the Viet Nam War. These guys taught us how to survive with nothing. But they over stressed, BE PREPAERD FOR ANYTHING. Always plan for the worse and hope for the best. I have lived by their teachings to this very day, and it has gotten me out of a lot of bad situations. I was a member of LA County Search and Resue, and most people we pulled out of our oceans, mountain and water ways were unprepared. You are not over doing it. Great Chanel, Great content.

Adam - Awesome job explaining your truly impressive load out. I respect having redundant emergency comms/beacons. Your backup should always be better than your primary. The Motto is: TWO is ONE, ONE is NONE. Cheers!

You nearly have it all. You just need to add arm bands, Life Bouy, extendable oars, first aid kit, fire extinguisher, survival suit and maybe a ISO life raft or two. Seriously though, given your long rides out to sea you're better off having the equipemnt you have. Ever think about peronalizing your SeaDoo? You can get graphics/wraps for them from places like MotoWrap. Not sure on any to fit the Fish Pro but definitely get some that fit your lasses S.D. Even if you can't get a warp to fit, those orange parts look a bit dull. Get some neon yellow to brighten it up and make it match the brand colours a bit more.

That is a genius video, thank you. just getting into the sport, after following your videos. There have been “thousands” of people lost at sea, that would have given one of their hands to have the safety equipment you have. There’s no such thing as being overly safe, or prepared. Keep up the great work, praying for your safe adventures.

I'm freshwater fishing in Washington, and have the beacon, marine radio, and a few other things that we NEVER used to use boating! As much room as the '22 Trophy has, I wish it had a little more! I got more fishing shit to take out! 8 hrs of break in done, nearly time to just do as I feel like on it.

Hi Adam, I use to own a PWC it was a Yamaha, and I use to carry safety stuff aswell. My friends use to laugh about it, cause they carried nothing except a fire extinguisher cause it's by law here. Luckily we never had to use none of them. But good for you my friend for thinking of everything and stay safe. Love from Malta 🇲🇹 ❤️
