Dinghy Kit

Compact marine first aid kit for dinghies and small craft. Built around catastrophic bleeding control, wound management, and exposure — the things that don't wait for shore.

The MMG Dinghy Kit is built for short-range crews — dinghies, day-sailers, small motorboats, and tenders. You're a quick ride from shore, but you still need to handle the things that don't wait: arterial bleeding, contaminated wounds, and the early hours of hypothermia.

We packed it around three principles. First, life threats first: a CoTCCC-recommended CAT tourniquet and QuikClot hemostatic gauze for catastrophic bleeding, plus a CPR face shield. Second, wound management for what actually happens on small boats — fishhooks, barnacle lacerations, friction -blistered hands — with irrigation, antiseptic, and antibiotic ointment. Third, exposure: a mylar emergency blanket, lip balm with SPF, and electrolyte mix for sun and salt loss.

What you won't find here is a medication panel or diagnostic equipment. That's deliberate. On a day-trip vessel, you carry your own pillbox. For multi-day or offshore work, the Coastal Cruiser or Offshore Kit is your mainframe — and the Dinghy Kit is the companion that goes with you. Stash it in the helm or lazarette, grab it when you're on and off the boat, take it in a tender or kayak. It handles life threats wherever the bigger kit can't follow. Every kit ships with a printed Patient Assessment Quick Guide and QR-coded dividers that link to product-specific usage videos.

Best for / Not for

Best for:

• Dinghies, tenders, day-sailers, small motorboats, kayak support boats

• Trips under ~4 hours from shore where Coast Guard / EMS response is realistic

• Owners who want a credible bleeding-control + wound-care kit at a low price point

Not the right kit if:

• Multi-day or overnight cruising — step up to the Coastal Cruiser

• Voyages 24+ hours from definitive care — step up to Offshore

• Anyone needing a packed medication panel or diagnostics
