525 spare parts
 
525 guys what spare parts make sense to keep on board for a breakdown that can be dealt with on the water. Belt, IAC? I had a crank sensor go out last year that I guess isn't very common but ruined the weekend so I have a spare on board. Looking to do some longer runs but want to be prepared. Thanks for any input.

i have always carried a spare belt, impeller and housing, alternator, never used any of them.

Thanks for the info. Mine are getting up in hours so just trying to be prepared.

If your belt has a lot of hours, replace it and keep old for spare

Duct tape, electrical tape and a few hose clamps, fuses. EPIRB

Every spare part and the entire Snap-On tool catalog was not going to help me the times I've broke on the water.

Cam Sensor, Crank Sensor, Full SWP replacement, Rinda/similar scanner, IAC & gasket, fuel water separator.

Thanks for the input these all seem logical to have on a long run to save a trip from being cut short

Add to that list:
-A few of the Blue Water Drain petcocks. They sell them in packs of 5 I think.
-Serpentine Belt
-Plug wire set
-Spark plug set
-Various Hose Clamps


Even if you have sensor or similar failure that you don't have with you; the Rinda scanner is a priceless tool to have. I loaned mine out nearly as much as I used it myself, including on poker runs and the like. If you don't have the sensor or whatever you need on hand, you can at least know if it's a $49 part that you can overnight in and get you back on your way.
