In addition to all that stuff I have some electrical connectors and crimpers, also a tube of marine grease (the pretty blue stuff from Bombardier).

And I have a snap repair kit for fixing broken snaps on covers or curtains...of course I dont have snap on covers or curtains on the V, but I did 3 boats ago...no wonder my toolbox is so heavy.

Oh yeah, and a prop wrench, or at least a socket big enough for the prop...even if you dont have a spare prop on board, you may need to take off the prop to get rope or fishing line out from behind it.

And don't forget the extra prop nut and washer to replace the one you drop overboard when you remove the prop to get that rope or fishing line out from behind it.

Mercury sells a plastic prop wrench that supposedly floats, it comes with a spare set of prop gear to go with it, I've used them and they work decently, more than enough for the average times a boater would remove his prop

And you may also want a few select size wrenches, sometimes you cant get a socket on what needs turning.

My boat has an I/O but I keep a spare water pump impeller in my "OH CRAP " kit. I keep a plastic milk crate full of spare parts, motor and lower unit oil, antifreeze, first aid kit, assorted sections of hoses and clamps, long pieces of light and heavy gauge wire and wire lugs, electrical and duct tape, zip ties, 5 minute epoxy, tube of gasket sealer, small bag of assorted bolts, nuts, washers and screws and some special wrenches. Ive got a Cresent wrench set with over 100 pieces I keep in my truck and transfer to the boat when I take it out. Its hard to be prepared for everything but most problems can be taken care of with a good tool set and some ingenuity.
