Aqua Buoy
This versatile piece of kit is the jewel in the crown of the safety pack. The dayglo orange buoy inflates with just a few puffs, and you can then attach it to your board, so it stands 1.5m tall in the water. Alternatively, you can easily fix it to a section of mast or your boom, to wave overhead as a distress flag. If you need to abandon your rig you can leave the aqua-buoy attached - it has a "reward" notice and a place for you to write your name and address on, so hopefully your rig will be found and returned to you. The buoy can also be used as a buoyancy aid, and best of all, has been designed so that it can quickly be fixed through the back footstrap and around the tail of the board to create enough lateral resistance to get you home should your fin break.

Lightstick
Once activated, this glows bright red for up to eight hours. Great if you're caught out at night!

3m of 4mm rope
High quality kevlar rope, suitable for downhaul, outhaul, adjustable head or harness line use, as a tow rope or simply to tie everything together in a self-rescue.

The Bag
And then of course, there's the bag itself. This has been designed specifically to fit snugly against the back of your harness, and comes with extra straps and instructions on how to do this. It works particularly well with a waist harness, but can be used on a seat harness too. In an emergency it's easy to open yet keeps everything secure until you need it, and has a lanyard mounting point (lanyard also supplied as standard) so that you can keep the heliograph, whistle, knife, safety cards and whatever else permanently tied to the bag, and won't lose them even if you're being buffeted by heavy chop and swell.

The bag also has sufficient spare space to include other items such as a small screwdriver, your mobile phone or car-keys in an Aquapac, a bar of chocolate or Kendal Mint Cake, even a hip flask!
