Here is my list. I have Volvos with stern drives. I know there are only a few boats on here with these. Anyone have any other items they carry for emergency repairs?

I also carry
All size's clamps
All size's cork & rubber plugs
1 roll of 1", 2" & 4" & 2 packs of 4" square FiberFix repair tape (this tape works on any kind of leak I've used it at home on a broken pipe)
Spare set of Nav lights
Complete set of different size's electrical connectors
Several rolls of electrical tape
Digital RMS Meter
IR temp gun
Sure I'll think of something else later.

Stocked first aid kit and AED. Oh wait, wrong thread.
Belts, impeller kit, rescue tape, elec tape, tools, cell phone, spare case of beer for when I wait.

That stuff is great. Kept a blown power steering line working to return to the dock.
Don't forget ALL fluids you need for your vessel.

Good tip regarding the tape - will get that.
I have also been meaning to get a bunch of spare hose clamps.

I hadn't heard of the rescue tape just looked at a couple videos looks easier to use than the FiberFix. After it cures is the rescue tape easy to remove?
I had to use the FiberFix on a hot water tank fitting that I noticed leaking at midnight it sealed it up instantly, probably could have left it on the pipe forever. While trying to remove it the next day it had cured into a very hard like fiberglass mat & epoxy that took at least 15 mins to cut it off the pipe & nipple.

The rescue tape is good stuff. I keep a roll of it on my boat.
Chances are that if you're using the rescue tape on a hose, that hose is going to be junk when you get back to the dock, so removal isn't an issue.
I keep the plugs, an assortment of tools, electrical connectors, belts, and a spare float switch for the bilge pumps aboard.
Most importantly: A paid Boat US membership with their phone number in the contact list of my cell phone.
