hmmm,
tropical beenie
thin reef gloves (tropical) Akona makes some good ones
monogrammed slap strap for identifying your mask ( yourbagtag.com )
monogrammed wetsuit wetsuit zipper pulls ( yourbagtag.com )
monogrammed suitcase tags ( yourbagtag.com)
handy-dandy portable save-a-dive kit (TRIDENT makes one for $ 25)
load up on assorted common O-rings (diveriteexpress.com has a good page on common sizes and scuba applications)
freshen up your dive computer batteries
black surgical tubing (reefscuba.com) and assorted bycycle inner tubes (to make rubber bands to secure items to BC webbing, I use them to secure BC inflator hoses to the corrugated inflator hose.)
other consumables: mask defog/suntan lotion/antibiotic lotions/band aids...you get the idea, you'd be surprised at all the little supplies/ do-dads you need for a trip.
marker pens (I just ordered some from DurableSupplyCompany) to mark my dive gear, theft deterrent plus it helps aviod confusion and helps the boat crew on deck keep track of what belongs to whom.)
quality safety gear (Halcyon SMB) and safety strobe (I'm using JOTRON ones, the AQ4 ).....each of those items will run you a little over $ 100 U.S. each.
