That is good advice, HDF, and I agree because I have kept my spare in the tow vehicle glovecompartment since I bought the boat. I also keep the keys to my drawbar lock in those same places. I keep thise keys on a FLOATING KEY FOB. I keep the key to my trailor lock with my vehicle keys.
You asked for other tips: I never leave my boat ingnition key in the boat when I am not fishing. I keep the boat key AND MY PLUG in the same place in my Van. After I have gotten everything else ready, EXCEPT FOR THE MOTOR TOTTER, I get the keys and the plug. I put the plug in, take off the totter, and then put the keys in the ingnition. I don't let anyone fishing with me take off the motor totter. I reverse the sequence when I leave the lake.
