After my experience with a leaking echo-sounder transducer, what items can the forum recommend as first-aid items for the boat?

Examples would be things like epoxy resin, sikaflex, gasket paper etc.

Hopefuly I can find inspiration for a boat First Aid Kit to permanently leave on the boat for the next little mishap.
 
Gaffer Tape, WD-40, selection of crimp terminals, heat shrink, large and small socket sets, spanner set, pliers set, wire strippers, screwdriver set, hammer, junior hacksaw, 9mm craft knife, Stanley knife, IPA spray, Contralube 770, spare oil, fuel and oil filters, fan belt, sea water impeller, multimeter, few bits of 8mm cord cut in 1m lengths, spare fuses, cable ties, spare Jubilee Clips, bungs for seacocks, pad saw or tenon saw, one jump lead if you don't have a battery switch, spare bulbs, human first aid kit, Allen keys, Torx bits ...
 
As above, and I also have:

GRP repair kit including resin and catalyst, spare glue and patches for inflatable, and some pieces of marine ply of various sizes which in an emergency could hopefully be screwed over a smallish hole in the hull.

Also have a battery powered heavy duty drill and various twist drills and bits.
