NAR Marine Trauma · USCG-Compliant Trauma & First Aid Boating Kit The boating kit that meets USCG recreational first-aid requirements and adds real trauma capability — a CoTCCC-recommended C-A-T and HyFin Vent Chest Seal — in a water-tight case. Meets & exceeds USCG C-A-T + HyFin Vent 3 colors · 3 versions Water-tight case Most USCG-compliant marine kits are built around minor wound care and have no trauma capability at all. The NAR Trauma & First Aid Boating Kit closes that gap — it satisfies USCG recreational boating first-aid requirements and incorporates CoTCCC-recommended hemorrhage control for the injuries that actually happen on the water: propeller lacerations, anchor-chain and dock-line crush, fishing-hook wounds, engine-fire burns, and falls. A prop strike opens a leg artery and the marina is 25 minutes out — does the kit aboard have a tourniquet, or just band-aids and seasickness tablets? The trauma backbone is drawn from NAR’s proven line: a CoTCCC-recommended C-A-T tourniquet for extremity hemorrhage, a CoTCCC-recommended HyFin Vent Chest Seal twin pack for open chest wounds, two Responder Compressed Gauze rolls for wound packing, and a 6 in. ETD for high-compression bandaging. Around that sits the full USCG compliance package — eye care, burn care, fracture and sprain management, antisepsis, and an OTC medication suite — organized in labeled zippered bags inside a water-tight case. Offered in Orange, Yellow, or Red, in three bleeding-control versions. Why This Kit Compliance + Trauma Meets and exceeds USCG recreational first-aid requirements and adds CoTCCC-recommended hemorrhage control most marine kits lack. Built For The Water A water-tight case with integrated handle protects supplies from spray and immersion and moves fast to the point of need. CoTCCC-Recommended Core Contents include the CoTCCC-recommended C-A-T tourniquet and HyFin Vent Chest Seal — serious capability, not a minor-care box. Three Hemostatic Versions Basic, with Bleeding Control Dressing, or with Celox Gauze — scale the hemostatic to how far offshore you run.

Orange / Yellow / Red 8 lb · water-tight case Genuine North American Rescue Sourced direct from North American Rescue. Specifications Compliance Meets & exceeds USCG recreational boating first-aid requirements Weight 8 lb (all variants) Dimensions H 6 × W 14 × D 10 in Case Water-tight, integrated handle — Orange / Yellow / Red Versions / SKUs 80-1483 through 80-1491 (3 colors × 3 versions) Manufacturer North American Rescue When to Deploy Trauma & First Aid Boating Kit On-water traumatic injury response: Deployed in response to lacerations, crush injuries, and blunt trauma from marine environment hazards — anchor chain, propeller, dock collisions — where evacuation may be delayed. Offshore and coastal bleeding control: The kit provides the tourniquet and wound-packing capability to manage life-threatening extremity hemorrhage until the casualty reaches shore or a responding vessel. USCG and marine law enforcement: Supports the operator's obligation to provide first response to casualties aboard or in the water — keeping a boat-dedicated trauma kit separate from the survival kit prevents supply consumption conflicts. Recreational and commercial boating compliance: Many coastal states and maritime safety programs recommend or require trauma-capable first aid kits aboard vessels. The NAR Boating Kit exceeds basic marine first aid requirements. Dive and water-sport injury management: Diver, surfer, and watercraft operator injuries involving lacerations and punctures require rapid hemorrhage control before waterborne evacuation — a waterproof-capable boat kit provides that capability.

The NAR kit includes CoTCCC-recommended tourniquets and hemostatic dressings that a generic kit omits. See Trauma Kits. NAR Boating Kit vs inland recreation kits: Marine environments introduce saltwater exposure and spray — the boating kit is designed for waterproof staging. Inland rec kits typically lack the waterproofing and marine-environment durability. Browse all trauma kits. Boat kit vs IFAK: An individual IFAK is body-worn and intended for self-aid. A vessel-staged boat kit provides higher-capacity supplies for multi-person response aboard the craft. NAR Boating Kit vs DIY marine kit assembly: Assembling individual items risks omitting critical components or stocking non-maritime-compatible products. The NAR kit is purpose-built for marine environments with validated contents.
