I've been reading the incidents re: shark bites involving swimmers / surfers / divers being bit. Had some conversations with an Army SF medic, and I decided to add a tourniquet in my thigh pocket. At least I'll have one handy in case of. This one is dead simple and will work ok at least for a while. You can practice to a point on yourself over and over easily.

The medic said it's a shame people die from blood loss that can be stopped right then at the time of the injury. We'll try and keep you alive while getting you on the boat / into shore. No guarantees, but we'll try.
