I carry 3 fire-extinguishers instead of one. I don't keep any of them next to my gas tanks because if they catch fire it may be too hot to get an extiguisher. One is under my seat, another under the "co-pilot" and a 3rd in the bow because I have a good place to hang it there.

Also a reasonable set of tools. Some extra wire, PVC tape, a few exra screws and a spare fuel filter.

If you don't like to pack a cooler for every little jaunt, you may want to stash away few small bottles of water. They can be a great comfort item if it takes longer for a slip to open at the Weirs and the kids start fidgetting. That means one les thing to distract you and that increases your safety factor.
