1. Net -- very large.
2. Hunting knife. I'm going to cheat a little and assume I can keep it sharp on stones I find in the cave with a little fish oil to use as I sharpen it.
3. Solar oven for cooking / drying the fish.
4. Bottle of 500 multi-vitamins, minimum daily requirements.
5. Mess kit.
6. Heavily padded sleeping bag. (I hate sleeping on rocky ground in a thin sleeping bag.)
7. 50 lb bag of rice (cook with fresh water, mess kit, solar oven) in waterproof and airtight container.
8. Solar powered short-wave radio, keep in rice container after I eat a little rice to prevent salt damage from ocean droplets.
9. Large bolt of sail canvas cloth.
10. Bible in waterproof and airtight pouch.
I can make needle and thread with fish bones and the net. I can make the clothes I need. Use about one lb of rice a week to supplement diet or to stave off starvation on in an emergency if I had a bad week fishing. Edible seaweed might be nice -- sushi anyone?

I dont give my guns without somebody getting hurt!
I like idea of a wind-up radio, you can listen to it at night when reception is better. You can get a combo wind-up/solar, so I want to change my selection to that one. And while I'm at it, I'll get the one that comes with a little LED light attached.
Now, about the blondes. (Keep in mind this is coming from the perspective of middle age!) If you have nine of them, that takes care of entertainment for days 1-9, what are you going to do for days 10-365? How are you going to feed them? Remember Ginger from Gilligan's Island? How much work do you think you'd get out of her? OK, she was a redhead, but you get my point.
Besides, when you're tired of the radio and don't want to listen to it anymore, you can turn it off.
I suppose it would be a good opportunity to do further research on some more "Dumb Blonde Jokes". Besides, I'd bet there would be a population explosion on that island within 9 months...then you'd spend all your time trying to feed them.

Instead of a stupid boat, I think it's obvious that a suitcase full of Viagra is the logical choice for #4.
And, clearly #5 should be a second suitcase full, just in case your lady friends hide the first! A pickup truck? Hmmmphh!!
And why would you want a chainsaw to make trails? You'll only create more places for them to hide, and you'll be all wore out from huntin em!
I say #10 should be a state of the art video recording system with tripod. I mean, why make all those memories if you can't enjoy em later?
Edit: Oops, got my #s wrong.
