That's part of the emergency kit...
If your stranded on a island and can't stand Sushi, you use that to carry twigs and moss back to the the lean to for a fire.

Cheers, Don

Working on the basis that the moment you throw something away it's not long before you discover you need it - I would throw it away, then it's purpose will surely become apparent!

Been there and done that many times. We have been renovating our house over the last few years and had loads of bits stored in the garage. I decided last year to have a clear out of things that were just gathering dust and sure enough a few months later i could have used them. Doh.

My SIB came with a square piece of PVC that sat under the fuel tank. It has 2 holes that the fuel tank strap slides through so I had a better clue.

Looks like a 'Parbuckling' sheet? Stand on one end of straps, pass underneath casualty in the water & haul on other ends to recover person into the boat? Or maybe I'm totally wrong? LOL

Not sure of the size, but is it some form of rescue sling for assisting to get people back into the boat ?

Ill dig it out again and give it a quick measure but i just dont think the straps are anywhere near strong enough to hold the weight of a person.

I reckon a tube protector is gonna be the answer.
