What To Bring For Your Next Boat Day

​A good boat excursion is simple if you know what to bring for the day. The things you generally carry with you, like your phone, wallet, and keys, are the most vital. But if you’re still in a pickle, this article is here to give you the assistance you need for your upcoming trip.

Essentials You Need To Pack
Other than your phone wallet and keys, the greatest approach to ensure a wonderful day on the boat is to pack the proper stuff. Whether renting a boat or bringing your own while on a vacation, having the correct equipment is crucial.

A Fishing License
You'll need a fishing license if you want to fish while you're on the boat. There are two sorts of licenses available, freshwater and saltwater licenses, depending on where you want to fish. 

Also, you can purchase a combined license if you're unsure where you want to fish. Contact your local DNR's office or the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission for the most up-to-date information.

Camera
One of the most enjoyable aspects of a boat excursion is taking photos. You can also take photos with your phone, but having an underwater camera allows you to take far more pictures than you could with your phone. 

You may also alleviate the burden of having your phone out when traveling on a boat by using underwater or disposable cameras.

Safety Gear And First Aid
The number of life jackets must be enough for each person in your group. Although many boat rentals may offer them for you, it is your responsibility to ensure that they are enough for you and your party.

A First Aid kit is required if you don't want a little accident to ruin your boat excursion. Waterproof bandages, antiseptic wipes, gauze, adhesive tape, and an ice pack should all be included in your first aid kit.

When out on the water, you should also wear sunscreen. Even if it's an overcast day, sunscreen is essential to avoid sunburns in the Southwest Florida heat. Remember to reapply your sunscreen multiple times during the day.

Conclusion
You can bring whatever you deem necessary for the trip, but make sure you don’t pack too much stuff that you possibly won’t be using at all. It will take up valuable space.  It would be good to bring a deck of cards or a speaker to play music on for long and boring trips as well, if you think you’ll use them.
