My problem is that I have all that stuff - and more.The replies to this post show why some of us ( me!) carry pretty much all of the above that has been amassed aver years. I was on anchor once and had to mend the tender throttle. Out came the angle grinder and I made the part. The kids were swimming at the time. Jig Saws, electric sanders, electric planner, heat gun etc it goes on and on. And I actually use most of it which is why everything on the damn boat works!
But in Sant Carles, we have these little lockups so you can more or less guarantee that the part or tool you want at anchor in "in the shed".
These little sheds fill up though.
I think I have most stuff out in Spain - even a spare anchor.
Spare oil - spare covers - spare electric bikes - spare battery chargers - and more.
And on the boat itself, I keep lots of spare stuff in the bilges.
Things like spare pumps - steering systems - heat exchangers and loads of electrical and electronic components.
In face some people on here have called my boat the quartermasters stores.
It is simple, when something breaks, it will probably break again so I replace it and buy another as a spare.
