8 things you need to have on your Boat

[@rockstarfan886]

When fishin n stuff posts you stop what your doin and you watch you know what I'm sayin you know what I'm sayin

[@FishinNStuff]

[@jagxj684]

Cuz that’s awe-some

[@flslingmaker8612]

Yeah, I know what you're saying, you just have to stop and watch! Can't get that ringing bell out of my head. Confession of a Fishin N Stuff addict.

[@johnhamilton9229]

Nice tips. If you fill your thermos with hot water for ten minutes then fill with coffee, you preheat the thermos giving you longer hot time👍

[@bobtomlinson8247]

A small bolt cutter is a must in every boat. When my cousin hooked me in the leg two weeks ago that bolt cutter allowed me to fish for three more hours before my trip to the ER. Of course the hand sanitizer, a small plastic squeeze bottle of alcohol and some toothache numbing stuff helped as well. The bolt cutters and hand sanitizer are always at hand and not in a tool kit while the alcohol and toothache stuff is in the first aid kit. The toothache medicine numbed my entry point of the hook well. Just sayn'...know whati mean?

[@sfcmmacro]

Love your videos… one tip I would add is to attach flotation to the tool, first aid, and other emergency kits. When you need those, your usually stressed and prone to making a mistake and having a kit go overboard. And if your boat swamps/sinks your have a chance at saving your emergency kits.

[@easemailboxes]

Keeping spare bearings in vac seal is gold. Thanks.

[@gregm8941]

Makes more sense to keep a complete spare hub for your trailer. Ever try to remove a bearing race on the side of the road? I had a wheel come half off and destroyed the lug bolts. Glad I had a complete hub.

[@coty7228]

Gotta love when fishinNStuff posts a video. Awesome hacks and how to’s thanks again pal

[@oldhardrock2542]

My old quarf Stanley thermos I've had since 1973. That old thing still keeps coffee hot all shift. It's had the crap beat out of it. Dented, scratched, hardly any paint but, still works like it did when I got it.

[@loriebriarton2285]

Every single one of those are definitely Must Haves! ...not to mention that they're all awesome! I like that you show different ways some things can be used as well!! Great content as always - thanks!!

[@brianlykins6663]

Brother ya done it again !!! All good ideas. I really like those mini ammo boxes. Heck you can put that first aid kit in one, tool roll in another, and they are gonna stay dry. Man I love your videos, you aught to pat yourself on the back. I appreciate your wife and family lettin you come out and play in the shop with us. God bless ya brother and your family. Hope you have a blessed day my friend.

Thank you for watching em

[@dahutful]

what he said. Even If I dont make anything, still tops.

[@bowhunter1244]

I keep a spare hub w bearings, seals and grease already packed in for my bass boat. That way if anything happens just pop it in and your ready to go. That way no grease gun needs kept in boat making a mess on the hot days. This is a must for any long trips or vacations.

[@tinahenry9595]

I'm new to your channel, and love it? I needed to get a hobby, so I started fishing, I saw your PVC rod caddy and decided to get it a try. I would like to show a pic, but don't know how. Needless to say, it works and even use it to store the rods in the garage. Just hang it on the wall! Thanks again for what you do!

[@LivinWith3M]

Awesome video brother. Thank you for the shout-out. Yep I learned the hard way to keep extra bearings and hub. Love all the other hacks too. 👍🏻

[@johnmarschalk1977]

Add a cold chisel and hammer. (can't always find a big rock on side of road) Had bearing go out and race stuck to spindle. Had a hacksaw blade so made a groove and chisel split race. LOL didn't have spare bearing so had to unhook and find parts store

[@dirtybuzzard5977]

👍👍👍👍 Just Awesome video and ya can store it all in the ammo boxes . except the thermos which is good for sweet tea or Brunswick stew with collapsible bowls . Sometimes we take along a small portable cookware set to cook fish on the boat .. 👍👍👍👍 keep videos coming

[@terrybeeson1614]

Great video! Everyone should be prepared in case something happens. My daddy always taught me to "hope for the best, but expect the worst." I know I drive my wife crazy with things like this, but I'd rather have it and not need it than need it and not have it. Oh - and that vacuum sealed bearing idea - AWE-SOME!!!!!

[@chopperhehehe]

Loved the bearing thing to 👍👍👍😜🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🦕🦄😁✌️🤞

I agree 💯 % , I appreciate it buddy

vac sealed replacement spark plugs are something I started carrying on the boat after flooding out far from home and getting stranded.

[@rudedawg5087]

Excellent video and hit the nail on the head on what you need. After 19 years of ownership the most valuable thing I found needed for our boat was the buyer.

[@gthaughton5647]

Awesome opossum! Thanks for showing the new products and idea's. Good to hear from you again. I'm already anticipating your next show. Til then, A.M.F. (addios my friend).

[@kentwicker6818]

Great tips! I used the first aid the last time out. Somehow on the way back my son sliced his finger pulling the drain plug out of the fish box. Boat was bloodier from that than any fish we ever caught. Luckily I had a first aid kit in the boat and the truck so we were good.

[@mikeedwards2384]

Spark plugs I have learned to keep at least 2 in my handy dry storage box lol I loved the video it was awesome thanks for sharing

[@MKultrapdx]

For anyone interested in the MTM Ammo crate, be mindful that the ammo boxes themselves taper in at the bottom. They are not symmetrical like the boxes we all know. If using for ammo it seems like it's intended use would be ammo unpackaged and tossed into these.

[@budm9982]

Hey, real nice list. I believe in being prepared for whatever circumstance may arise so have all that you suggested already and then some. I agree with you about the Olight with the magnetic charger. Had one for years, always clipped to my pants pocket. It worked well and the battery lasted a long time on a charge but I found that when I was grinding metal, the shavings would adhere to the magnet on the base of the flashlight, making the processor do all sorts of funky things and it was a pain in the butt to try to clean metal filings off the magnet. I couldn't throw away an $85 light but when it finally wore out I did not replace it with the same type.

[@FishinNStuff]

I agree , it was cool at first but . Then I went back to stream light . I use I'm to walk down to my shop at night now . I don't worry as much in the winter . But I'm always afraid I'll step on a snake in the summer

[@mikemalan5338]

Always brilliant- loved the boat hacks, and yes have twice had the bearing issues. I will add that my number 1 must have on a boat is toilet paper sealed in a zip lock bag. Like the bearings, one day you’ll need it 😮😂

[@FishinNStuff]

You got me lol . I did forget that one . But it is important

[@bradfarrahgerwing154]

Don't forget a luggage loo and some plastic bags to line it....i keep TOILET PAPER and boat gear in the bucket already in a bag with a regular 5 gallon pail lid for quick removal before slapping the loo lid on .....my small boys would never make it to shore when we are way out on the water.....even driving I only have to 45 seconds to pull over before OMG SITUATION

[@gohphaqurselfeeputhy622]

I got the bubba thermos. Keep a full pot of coffee warm all day. And I have the same first aid kit but black. I got it from Amazon 2 days ago lol

[@panda-threemonkeysracing2116]

Great video as always! Love the hacks and products you present. Definitely going to look at a few from this video.

[@chknlyps2373]

I have an entire spare hub, greased bearings and seal already installed, with new nut, washer, cotter pin & cap sealed in a bag. Along with necessary tools, rags, paper towels for old grease, brake clean spray all in an ammo can. Ammo can sits on the tongue of the trailer and gets put in the truck when I hook up the boat. Hey, that can of rope is pretty darn cool!

[@dahutful]

great tip on the vacuum sealed, pre-greased bearing. I use cable pulling mule strap as grab and go rope...same stuff you got there. But free! Tool roll is another goodie Some pretty cool hacks...er,... tips,.... er.... well, whatever. Thanks - you da man David SC

[@_GR1T_]

I always take a jump box with me on my boat. You never know when you or a fellow boater might need a jump start.

[@niceguydmm]

Good stuff! I keep enough on the boat to live on the bank for a day or two if needed. Lighters, cracker etc. My favorite is my 12v lunch box heater. I have heated meatballs in sauce to bubbling in it. And of course my butane cooker. If my boat breaks down at night and I'm stuck I'm camping somewhere.

[@scottmeacham1738]

I believe we can make a rope dispenser out of pvc pipe and 3 fittings. I'm pretty sure I can get rubber grommets for the threaded top to feed the rope out through it. I sold my boat to buy another kayak and now I have 4. My 12' kayak has a Lot of dry storage so I can carry all my fishin rods and a tackle bag along with a First-aid bag and a rope dispenser. That's a great idea about the lighters. I'm SO glad you used your vacuum sealer on that bearing and race. You can vacuum seal some other stuff too! The lighters, First-aid bag and tool bag can all be vacuum sealed. Just remember that anything vacuum sealed won't float so you might want to attach a pool noodle or something to float it or a lanyard to attach it. Thanks for sharing your ideas with us!

[@chopperhehehe]

Cool tips love the lighter I want one 👍👍👍😜🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🦕🦄🦄😁✌️🤞

[@joebuck66]

All these are great ideas but, the most important one , in my opinion is the thermos. Having coffee is a must. Although I don’t have a boat right now , bank fishing I always have a first aid kit, rope, my hybrid flashlight, lighter , and a charging bank. Great video Keith.

[@FishinNStuff]

I love back fishing and I do have a boat lol . Thank you buddy

[@macsmith2092]

That vacuum sealed bearing is brilliant! I will also be adding an electric lighter to my kit. Thanks for sharing.

[@stunick1573]

Good helpful video as always. Thanks for the tips a few are actually being use on my boat as we speak. I went a bit farther with the first aid, I carry two tourniquets with the med kit.

[@FishinNStuff]

That's a good idea though

[@adfdasdfadfadsfareae]

The ammo boxes are neat. I created a similar set-up on my kayak using a Pepsi "Wis-Pak" plastic crate/tray (the kind used for bottled drinks). It fits three standard plastic ammo crates perfectly, and then I just run a bungee cord over the top and through their handles to secure them. Pretty sure I could hit the highway and not worry about them going anywhere.

[@charlesknight3204]

Excellent information and advice!!! Simply outstanding!!! Take care, be safe and God bless. Chuck Knight from Buffalo, Texas. 🤠👨‍🌾✝️🙏🖖👍👋

[@JT_70]

Great idea on spare bearings. I’m about to drag my boat and trailer over 800 miles next month. As soon as I find out the part numbers for my Tracker trailer bearings and seals I am going to vacuum seal a set like you showed.

[@garlandmcalister2997]

Buddy bearings and a grease gun never had a problem

[@kenneth9874]

@@garlandmcalister2997 you will 1 day, I have a spare hub assembly for each trailer

[@marctheriault]

#2 certainly resonated. Bought my 2009 17’ Sea Lion Trailer last fall and just discovered that I should have redone my bearings right then. 😢 Just ordered my flashlight - the discount code auto-fills after typing in the first few letters. 👍 The tool bag is another excellent suggestion! Ta-day, was a good day! 😅

[@Archangel_21]

That's good practice, unless a previous owner can prove when he had recently changed, just have them replaced as soon as you get the new-to-you boat. I did that because it was obvious that one had failed, but I forgot about the tires. Even though they looked to be in good condition, my eyes couldn't see the dry rot on the inside. So, while trailering said new-to-me boat home, I get a blow out on the highway. While limping off of the highway trying to make it to Walmart, I get blowout #2 on the other side. Had to drop the trailer in a residential neighborhood, make it to Walmart, and four brand new trailer tires later, I was on the road home again. So if a trailer has been in and out of the water, and ESPECIALLY if it's been sitting for a while, figure on bearings and tires.

[@jefferybarron929]

I like those Magnesium strikers as well. The will light even when soaking wet.

[@liprippinlife]

AWESOME to see a new video...

[@BrokefishN]

I have that Frist aid kit it is the bomb and just unsnap pull and bag comes off fast when done put back and ready!

[@tessaend]

Those electronic lighters are great for cutting braided line or anything that you need to melt and cut at the same time. I use one that's a stick style and just has one arc instead of two like yours. I use it to cut all my fishing line whether it needs to melt or not. The stick style let's you've read precise. I lived that can of rope. I've never seen it but I'm definitely gonna go find some.

[@briankerr3518]

I think everyone should have a treble hook for rods or stuff gone overboard...I made one from a kitchen wisk from the dollar store.

Great job on the video! We sell a lot of boats in Lake Havasu Arizona and this is good information for our boaters. Keep up the great work.

[@FishinNStuff]

@jamesdeanboatrv thank you Sir

[@sciguyjeff]

Got a Bubba bottle as a gift. Best thing ever, I must have 8 or 10. The big ones certainly hold more than you think and when on sale, they run about $12. Unlike a glass thermos, it is all metal so you won't break anything. If you want cold beverage, I but the empty bottle in the freezer and then fill it up in the morning with already cold drink. The only way to go! Rope - darn right. Especially if you have one of those kind of significant others - if you know what I'm sayin :) I normally have them on all my cleats with a big carabiner clip. Great for tying off on trees when fishing, no worry about messing around with knots.

[@jackedwards7420]

It surprises me to no end is why all trailers don't come with Bearing Buddy caps on the hubs! I've got them on every trailer I've got and haven't had a bearing go down in 30 yrs!!

[@wbw1mi]

Spot on!

[@chadschroeder4789]

Before using any of the stainless bottles for drinking water or for hot stuff you need to do a lead test on it a lot of the stainless cups have lead in them make sure they don't have lead

[@rockyraab8290]

One, there's no need to keep spare bearings on the boat - in the tow vehicle is better. Two, if the cap on that thermos is hot, that's where all the heat is escaping. Pretty poor.

[@majorwayne9866]

If you use those Ryker bags or similar, you may want to soak it oil first, if not they trap moisture & your tools will be rusty & corroded when you need them the most. I now use a plastic ammo can. They seal pretty good (depending on how cheap you go) & keep your tools dry! Not all of your hacks are for me but most all are really cool. Out of all the hacks you have come up with, the ryker bag was only one I can say was just bad. And keep your first aid kit in a small ammo can, dry bag or dry box.

[@FishinNStuff]

That's a great tip

I have that makita coffee maker. You can use grounds too. You're right about 2 cups per charge, but you left out that's with a 6 Amp hour battery. A 4 won't make it through the second cup.

Hi, With the thermos pre heat it with boiling water while you are making your hot 🥵 drink , then pour the hot water out before it cools too much and pour in your hot drink or food, try it ? I have been doing this trick for years before I go camping 🏕 or fishing ( outdoors activities) .

I think the most important thing to have on the boat is a bucket toilet. That will save a trip back home with messy pants, LOL 2nd is a cooler full of beverages. 3rd is the fishing gear.

[@youdonthavetoreadthispost.5850]

You can fix it in your driveway or fix it on the road. At the dock ? Or on the water. It's up to you. In case of emergency you need to grab and do. Having it but not needing it is a good idea. For fast water in rivers you can't be too prepared. Our wilderness area takes 3 days to transit by raft or drift boat. No freelancing - permit only. Be safe.

[@jeffreyneely9283]

Your spot on man .love your videos...

[@gofishingwhenyoucan]

We use a $5.00 harbor freight tool bag to put our tools in And a medium sized plastic storage bin for our plastic worm boxes in our boat

[@Deadcntr]

The thermos is kind of like the Stanley vacuum bottle that has been around for 40+ years. I highly recommend an Israeli bandage for any first aid kit.

[@gr0uch02a]

Very cool, as always. On the electric lighter, there are ones made that are even easier to use as they have flexible shafts on them so you have both greater reach and more flexibility. They are rechargeable as well and the charge lasts a really, really long time. I'm jus' sayin'. ;)

[@DS-sh5we]

Another great video Keith...and I don't even own a boat! However, just about all of these things (outside of the bearings) can also be used in your car or truck.

[@FishinNStuff]

Thank you , yep your right I still use more these items, no matter what kind of fishing I'm doing

[@coptotermes]

Regarding charging the olight flashlight. There a couple of things you could do to charge it and not need the special magnetic charge cable. First you could buy a second battery to take with you. Second you can keep that second battery charged with a 12v 27100 battery charger on the boat. You could use one battery and have the second one on charge for if you need it.
