Default 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.

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.

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.
