Manteo, NC -- A marine first aid kit came with the boat, so I decided to inventory the contents to see what needs to be replaced.I fully expected to find things like bandaids, alcohol swabs and gauze. I was not disappointed.
I was not expecting a scalpel, skin stapler and a CPR mask. The instruction booklet has step-by-step instructions for things like reviving an unconscious person and performing an amputation. Jeez.
Give us a gurney and a triage team, and we'll be a floating hospital.
I'm all about being prepared, but let's hope we only use the bandaids for paper cuts and the aspirin for rum hangovers.
