Robert Cline asks: <What, if anything would you carry on an expedition for boat repairs?> Without going down to my "repair pack", which pretty much stays packed between my infrequent trips, the following: Denzo tape; duct tape; 18 gauge steel wire; two wire clamps; two small hose clamps; about 50 feet of strong string; an epoxy "ding stick" which will set up in cold/wet conditions; a small kit of 6 oz glass cloth, epoxy & catalyst, latex gloves etc; sailmakers' needles, a little plastic "pusher" for the needles, dental floss as the "thread"; a cheap imitaion of a "Leatherman" multi-purpose tool; hacksaw blade broken in half; good sharp knife. ..... There are probably a couple of other things I can't think of right now. (CRS syndrome takes its toll. That's why the kit stays packed!)
