I was working on my boat the other day and pulled out the flares and looked at them to be amazed that they were over a year out of date. OOOOOOOPS. Just figured it would be a good idea to compile a list of things to go through to make sure we all have a safe boating season.

Flares not out of date?
All life jackets ok and sized properly for all passangers?
Tighten all steering assemblies and drive brackets
Replace water pump impellers
Oil change
Shift and throttle cables working freely.

Ok now you guys add to my short list

Make sure First Aid kit is stocked. Although a box of tampons will do the same thing.

Lets not forget the tool box.....including spare parts like belts and impellers (like audio said).....
And double check that bilge pumps work too!!
