proof lighter, scraps of wire, twist on electrical connectors, assorted
bolts and nuts, a corkscrew, ball pein hammer, an extension cord, and a
sh*t load of bubble gum.

You've included some of my favorite "specialty" tools like the coat
hanger, but I've never felt the need for a brick. What do you use
that for if I can ask?

oh well you can beat on stuff with it, and toss it at stuff too. but
what i was really thinking was more of a firebrick so when you use a
blow torch or need to solder something you don't burn a hole in the
boat LOL. i know when i'm around the house i'm always picking up a
rock or brick and using it for something, and there's not many rocks on
a boat! it's also good for holding things down when the wind blows.
