If you burn a whole tank every time you go out, never mind but we
usually get 2 or 3 trips on a fillup.
I came up with this to remind me to put some gas in before I get ready
to go. It is better than figuring out I am low after we are all on
board and I start the motor.
I hang this on the lift switch when I am putting the boat away if I
know I am low coming in.
I will see this before I get on the dock. Then I can get a can of gas
and put it in while the lift is going down.

I'll have to take a photo of my RV checklist.

I don't really have much of a checklist for the boat.
We take a cooler, dog water and a trash can.
Leaving the boat is gathering up those 3 plus whatever else we picked
up. (usually just trash)
Gas is the wild card. It is not an "every trip" thing.
If we are just putting around, we may only burn a gallon or two.
I put 5 or 6 in at a time depending on which can I use.
When I notice that gas is coming up, I hang this on the dog water and
hang it on the lift switch when I am getting off. Works great.

RVs require something much, much more extensive:

You really need to remember the last item?

I've never forgotten, so I don't know. But I'm not willing to take the chance.
