- on the water. Whether its a tube, air mattress, pool noodle or a floating island floating water toys add excitement and enjoyment to the day.
- Inflatable water toys - No raft-up is complete without the ability to lounge and splash around
- Air Pump - If you don't have an air pump in your boat you may want to look into purchasing one. There are a number of different kinds including compact ones that plug into a 12V outlet. Makes blowing up water toys a breeze.
- Water Squirters - when its time to cool off these little suckers come in handy...or if you are trying to get the attention of the boaters down the way.
- Favourite book or magazine - If making a splash isn't your style or you are looking for a break from the action your favourite book or magazine can be just the answer you are looking for. A few recommendations that we have include: Cottage Life Magazine, First Mate 101, Ports Guides
- PFD's - Not only are these necessary items to ensure the safety of everyone on board, they area also great for assisting in lounging out on the lake.
- Tunes - There is nothing that makes a party like a great list of tunes. Stock up your iPod with great boating beats and bring it out to liven up the raft-up. If you need some inspiration, here is some ideas from our friends at Discover Boating.
- Snacks & Drinks - There may be nothing out there that is more social than sharing a snack or a drink with friends. Remember all drinks on the water should be alcohol free unless you are planning to stay the night and your boat is properly outfitted to designate it as a private place. For some inspiration check out our boating recipes pin board.
