I saw this post on Facebook and dismissed it at first as you don't need tools, it's a kayak, and then I started thinking. I do actually keep tools in my boat and have needed them on numerous occasions. For me it's a screwdriver with bits for everything on the boat and a Leatherman. I can't tell you how many times I have had to tighten a hatch or fix a seat. Aside from that I always carry zip ties and nylon webbed strapping because I have been caught without them before and it was no fun. How about you? What have you found you need to bring with you as far as tools or repair materials? It's something you never think about until it's too late.

We aren't one of those communities where you never meet the person behind the screen. We value getting to know our members and friends. While it is not required, we do ask that you please put your display name as your real name. This makes it easier for our members to find you and connect with you for events and general comradery. We are a club, what's the point of hiding behind a fake name? If you have already created an account you can go into your account details and change your display name, this is what we will see when you are active on our site. Come on in and meet everyone!
