Through a number of incidents, namely the lost group of 7 divers in Indonesia of which 5 survived, I started thinking of what would I want with me had I been in that group. Now I like to be streamlined as much as possible, but I think I came up with a fairly good solution for me. I found a pouch that can strap to my leg. In it, I have the following emergency / survival kit:
Nautilus Lifeline radio
Mirror
SMB
whistle (I have a diver alert, but what would I use if I my tank is empty?)
spare flashlight
Now this is fairly out of the way, and I don't think I'll notice having it on my leg when I'm normally diving, so I'm thinking (hoping?) I'm not a "must have everything with me" diver caricature.
Is there anything anyone thinks I'm missing?
What's in your kit if you were to be in this situation?
