A computer is optional for most sailors, but it depends a lot on
what
they're
using it for. I don't bother for most cruises, but if I'm out for
more
than a
few weeks I certainly carry one. Some sailors use them for
navigation,
others
for photography, and everyone here uses one for email.

But a pliers? Are you saying the a sailor shouldn't have a
pliers
onboard?

A pliers is used when the correct spanner isn't available.

It will usually cause damage to any nut that it is applied to.


I do have a pliers aboard - however I try to avoid using it.
