Adventure Medical Ultralight and Watertight .5 First Aid Kit For Kayaking

Many kayakers go out on the water without considering if they are prepared for minor injuries that might require first aid or basic care. The Adventure Medical first aid kits are water-resistant and contain basic first aid necessities to treat cuts, scrapes, insect bites and blisters all in a portable, highly water-resistant case. There are kits available which are scaled in size and contents to cover just about any need on the water while kayaking. A minor cut or injury can quickly ruin a day on the water or possibly lead to more severe injuries like infection so why not include one of these compact first aid kits with your other kayak gear to be better prepared. These kits are designed with portability and convenience in mind, so you can easily bring the essentials you need without worrying about excessive weight or bulk. Plus, each kit is tested for water resistance, so you can be sure your gear is protected no matter the conditions.
