This kit was built around the idea of offering some basic emergency gear to people who spend a lot of time around the water - canoers, rafters, fisherman, ...
Opens kit.. Removes sole item.. Finishes the flask of whiskey. Arrived safely back in town 24hrs lately with a mountain woman bride and a fist full of gold nuggets.
Some people go canoeing* by themselves aswell. The survival kit is incase you're by yourself and need to survive. Besides even if you have someone with you in a different canoe they might not be able to help you. And better safe than sorry.
why not just get a fanny pack? if it's buckled to your person, you won't
get it caught on a rock, plus, you can fit more stuff in to it. Like others
said, a life straw! Bigger knife, a real compass, plus a map of the area
your in, maybe some emergency food? just sayin'. Rather look like a fanny
with a fanny pack than be stuck with bare bones essentials.
+Jeremy Metcalf Again, I take it you don't have much experience with them. They have their place sure. In a kayak you can't wear it on the fanny because of the cockpit design and seat. So you would have to wear it in front. You also have to consider the fact that you will be wearing a life jacket which depending on the size and style of the fanny pack would not fit right. The case he is showing isn't being worn in a cargo pocket (hence why the leash). He said he wanted it to be able to fit into a cargo pocket but that wasn't where it would be kept. He keeps it attached to himself with the leash and a carabiner. The case can easily rest in a storage pouch or somewhere else where it can easily float free in the event of a capsize. His goal would be to retrieve his kayak and any gear that he could. Failing that, he will at a minimum have this which would keep him alive until help gets to him or he can get to help. I live in the Pacific NW and our rivers run extremely cold even in the summer time. Wet gear is not what you want, especially if it is your last chance. 3 years experience as an EMT 4 years doing Search and Rescue and a life time spent hunting and fishing, trust me when I say a fanny pack would not be good in these conditions. Now if you were in the desert or were doing something like mountain biking, then maybe. It's all about knowing your environment and what risks / challenges you will likely face.
+Mike L I disagree. If you're kayaking, you didnt fall out of a plane into it. Youre in the kayak because you put yourself there. therefore, if you can put a small container in a cargo pocket, you can bring something else. fwiw, fanny packs are worn on the fanny, hence the name. it isn't supposed to be in the front. I'll take the fanny pack and risk some things getting potentially wet over a tiny tin with hardly anything in it. Then again, if I'm outdoors I'm bringing a shitload more than a fanny pack.
+Jeremy Metcalf I'm guessing you don't have much experience with fanny packs. If you were wearing it while Kayaking or doing other activites where one sits for a long time it would get very uncomfortable real quick. Also, depending on the size they can get in the way. They aren't as durable or water proof. Ziplocs aren't intended to be water proof and while you can add waterproof storage bags they do take up space and add weight. A fanny pack might be good in some situations but not for the situation he is describing. Sometimes bare bones is all you have. This isn't something for camping, this is something to keep you alive until you are rescued or you can get to help. Nothing more than that. Hence why it is "bare bones". I would bet that he has a lot more gear in his kayak, especially if he is camping.
+Jeremy Metcalf Fanny pack might work - easier to rip though and isn't water-proof.

+petnzme01I`m getting dumber? Every claim that you`ve made till now has been false, and i`m getting dumber? LOL, well you`re right, since i`ve continued this conversation with a retarded faggot like you, you can say that i`m loosing some brain capacity. That`s why i won`t reply to your retarded comments after this one, because as the beautiful saying goes:"Never argue with stupid people, because they`ll drag you to their level and beat you with their experience."Bye retard, have fun being a illogical faggot.
+petnzme01Again with this 35 thousand.Look at the FBI statistics, from their FUCKING website, you retarded faggot. Stop pulling numbers out of your ass and look at the official government numbers, you communist cunt.Oh, i have a clue to where you`re from, don`t worry, i just want you to say it.But let me take a guess, you`re fucking retarded, you don`t admit to being wrong, even when proven wrong (many, many times), you`re probably very ugly and never visit the dentist, hmmm, you`re British.
+Food For Thought and if you're too fucking clueless to figure out where I'm from..I put that down to your head being shoved up your arsehole for too fucking long.
+petnzme01AHAHAHHAAHHAHAHA I`m done talking to you faggot, i kept destroying every "argument" that you made, now you`re being a faggot and just posting articles and cherry picking certain situations, while being ashamed to tell me where you`re from.See, i know that the US is better than your country, because you`re ashamed to tell me where you`re from.

+Food For Thought Of course ...If your head is permanently stuck up your arse it is going to start to smell sweet...Now this is 4 years old...The darkest spot is in the South..and yes...We could be talking about your sphincter (it's not far from the truth) //www.theatlantic.com/national/archive/2011/01/the-geography-of-gun-deaths/69354/35 Thousand Gun Deaths.//www.forbes.com/sites/dandiamond/2015/08/26/americas-gun-violence-problem-in-three-charts/You dumb cunt
+petnzme01LOL, so you`re not even an American, and you "know" all this stuff about the US? Dude, if it`s so bad here, why do you spend your time doing all this "research"? You don`t see me studying your shit-hole of a country, you clearly are mad that you don`t live here.But, all the things that you mentioned, they all happen in cities run by libtard communists, like yourself. Like Detroit, Chicago, DC ect... because they`re stupid communists that just give money away to leaches, who don`t work, and the money that they give away, it`s money that they don`t even have, so they`re just creating a debt for unborn children.Also, 35 thousand a year? Are you retarded? It`s like 9 thousand a year, but in a country of 350 million people, that`s like 4 per 100.000 people. And, if you remove the libtard communist states that you love so much, it`s 1 per 100.000 murders, so one of the lowest on the planet, considering that Europe is like 3 per 100.000, the current rate of murders (4 per 100.000), is not bad at all.But please, tell me where you`re from, since you like to talk about my country so much, you communist faggot.
+Food For Thought My god they breed you dumb in the south...lols I don't live in a communist country you dumb fuck..lols Jesus fucking christ...You're fucking hilarious... We aren't stupid enough to put guns into the hands of babies to shoot fucking idiots..Yeah you're third world cunt..Bankrupt cities, Banks forcing people out of their homes and ending up on the streets. Millions of homeless. Gun fucked idiots shooting their own feet. Fucking dirty pigs executing innocent people on the street. 35 thousand gun death per year.Your countries a fucking joke cunt...lols
+petnzme01HAHAHAH why so emotional, faggot? You`re gonna use 2 cases to prove a point against thousands of murders committed by your side? LOL, kill yourself, faggot.Oh, and cunt, i`m not in a 3rd world country, because i don`t live in a place run by communist libtards.
+Food For Thought Yes yes yes...It's the stupid fuckers with guns shooting themselves...11 year old finds gun and shoots next door neighbours 8 year old in the Idiot South, 2 year old shoots mother in the Idiot SouthOh and cunt?..You are the third World country.
+petnzme01NO, NO, NO, it`s peaceful republicans will guns, just minding their own business, or dangerous stupid democrats with guns, who kill people and their murder rates are worse than a lot of 3rd world countries.Those are your options, have fun getting murdered by your dear libtards.
+petnzme01Really? Do you have any proof? Because i have proof that the most dangerous cities in the US are run by Democrats, and, have very harsh gun laws.//www.msn.com/en-us/health/wellness/the-10-most-dangerous-cities-in-america/ss-AAfDo9R//www.youngcons.com/9-of-10-most-dangerous-cities-in-america-run-by-democrats/
+petnzme01 Yeah, Republican held territory, like NY, Chicago, Baltimore, Ferguson, DC, LA, Detroit and all these "Republican" areas that have the highest murder rates in the country. Oh, wait....
+petnzme01I've allready wrote it somewhere - there are three reasons having a gun in EDC - you are policeman, a contract killer or an idiot.This guy has three guns.
+RobertSalmond he needs them for the dangerous areas...Republican held territory ...

Your cpr face mask is a better call than the mouth barriers they always
leak the mask is a little more difficult to use but if you had cpr training
