Type 3 vest for myself & my wife, handheld GPS, rigging knife.

On the boat I'd check the rations & water first, then probably the bilge

steering & emergency steering, backing plates on mooring cleats, radio,
batteries & charger, ground tackle...

It'd take a pretty long list, actually. Roughly equivalent to a survey.
