Which (spare) parts are essential to have ....

Let's assume you and your beloved H16 (2004) go on a mutual vacation at some far away place where they have not much of anything .... maybe electricity and water, Tequila and some tools, but that's pretty much it.

What are the most important spare parts, tools, ingredients, gadgets or utensils that should come along for the ride?

Thankful for any and all suggestions, and your valuable input ....

Clevis pins, rings, shackles, mast chips, batten caps. Maybe some spare wires, halyard.

Mt '85 needed the plastic rudder cams and the special screws to replace the rivets if the cams had never been changed. I also needed the clips that hold the bridle to the hulls. My mast came down in the middle of the lake when one failed. You might consider some fiberglass resin and some fiberglass cloth. I would also carry a fully charged electric drill with some bits and some S/S sheet metal screws. And a Swiss army knife. : )

drain plugs, clevis pins and ring-dings.

I’d add some spectra or Dyneema line that could replace almost any line or wire on the boat in a pinch. And some high stent the adhesive tape. And a glass if there is tequila handy.

Rudder pins...
