For the 'sea weights' ie crowbar etc, I would be tempted to go for a carabina, easy on and off and you can loop rope through the eye and the tool so as its harder to lose them. As mentioned though, marine grade stainless is the way to go with bolt snaps, especially if the spring is made of the same material, keeps them sliding nice and smooth that way.



EDIT : and yes, I know carabinas are nicknamed 'death clips' but they are safe enough if you are careful and everything is streamlined / tucked away. You can always band the hammer etc to your stage if you regularly carry one.

I ran a wreck course at the weekend and one of the students turned up with the smallest boltsnap I have ever seen. Looked like 103 on the chart. Suffice to say that with gloves on there was no way he was going to open it. Thankfully is was replaced in double quick time with a proper boltsnap.

Sometimes common sense is sadly lacking!
