Make sure all tools and steel spare parts are stored in water proof containers with a Zee Rust tab or two. Nothing worst than having the tools and they are in such poor shape you can't use them.

Good Lord, Been owning a boat for 25 years and have never had anything close to all that stuff in my boat. I guess I have been lucky to never need any of it. I do keep jumper cables and tow rope. And even they have never been opened up for use.
Never have really had the need to bring my stinking garage with me.
The one thing I think is very important is to have everything you need to change a boat trailer flat.

everything I have fits in a shoe box. Flares, breaker bar for changing tires, zip ties, couple big screwdrivers, spare tm cord, and first aid kid. Only had to use the breaker bar once on PGB turnpike.

It may have already been suggested along with a hammer & wood block, a small nail set to help get a bent trolling motor shear pin out.

I didn't read everything on here, but....don't take for granted that your car/truck tire change tools,..
jack-wrenches-etc..will work on your boat trailer. Be sure you do have the right trailer tire change
tools,... de

If I need anything more than fuses, jumper cables, zip ties, water proof wire connections and a few hand tools. I guess I'm in touble, probably made 80 trips this year and have needed tools 1 time.

And that is why you carry tools. So you never need them.

Some of you guys have got to be joking.

I carry a spare prop for each motor and the proper tools to change them. A set of jump cables, a hammer, a crescent wrench, couple screw drivers. Anything else needed and the days shot anyways. Lol.

Instead of jumper cable I'm getting a Weego battery booster. Bought one of these & gave to my daughter for Christmas last year. Her battery died one night while she was at work. She grabbed it, put alligator clips on battery , cranked up & went home. Her husband replaced her battery next day. She called & said THANK YOU DAD. LOL. I'm putting one in my boat. Charge it once a month, compact, & takes up less room than cables.

Small tool kit ($25 from Home Depot)
Spare TM prop
Prop wrench
2 wrenches for Jack plate

Don't see a need for 100lbs of extra stuff just in case.
