Depends on the boat.

It's a good place for a ditch bag and an EPIRB on a big boat.

Fire extinguisher, too... although I agree with the suggestion that at
least one other fire extinguisher be kept aboard at another location.

I keep a flashlight, a flare kit, and a hand held VHF just inside the
companionway on both of our boats.

Good answer Doug. What sort of things would you have in
a flare kit?
