VHF floating radio if you are going far from the madding crowd.

A compass sounds good to me. Thanks.

Here's a compass, whistle, storage container, etc., combined for $4.

I'm wondering if the free LED flashlight that Harbor Freight hands out might slide inside the sealed storage tube? If not, it's a good place to store a fishing license, bait barge & margarita money. At the moment, cash and license stow in a pocket inside my fishing hat.



These are not waterproof for soaking. They're bright and have been splash resistant for me. I've been using one for saltwater kayak fishing for over a year. For free, the price is right.

this compass looks a little better:

A floating VHF radio with GPS is on my wishlist, but there are too many other things waiting to be bought and paid for first.
