SAVE-A-DIVE KIT


What would you do if your fin strap broke if you were on a boat, on a dive vacation? Would you have to sit out the dive? Do you have a backup? Every diver should carry with them a good “Save-a-dive” kit. The following items are inexpensive and by not having them may end up ruining an expensive dive outing.

- O-RINGS, VARIOUS SIZES FOR TANKS, HOSES, ETC.
- MASK STRAP OR SPARE MASK
- FIN STRAPS
- SPARE BATTERIES FOR COMPUTER, FLASHLIGHTS, ETC
- SECOND STAGE MOUTHPIECE
- SILICONE LUBE
- SCUBA TOOL
- POCKET KNIFE
- CABLE TIES
- DUCT TAPE
- SNORKEL KEEPER
- MASK DEFOG
- CLIPS, BUCKLES, RETRACTOR

Keep all of the items in a small box or zip lock bag. Make sure that all of your spare parts fit your own gear. You may find yourself adding to your kit as needed.
