In an emergency at sea where it is necessary to abandon the vessel there is often little time to prepare.  Therefore it is vital that important equipment - VHF radio, EPIRB, SART, rations, documents etc are kept in one place ready to take with you at all times.  The high visibility PainsWessex Grab Bag is compact enough to be able to easily carry with you onto a lifeboat, while its splash proof and buoyant design keeps the contents safe from water damage while awaiting rescue.
