DESERTED ISLAND

What three things would I "take" on a deserted island. To start, I would like a large pocket knife with a striker on it. So that I may start fires, cut wood, and make spears for fishing. I could consider taking one of those contraptions that turn salt water into fresh. But since its my story, I'm going to say there is plenty of fresh water already on the island. Secondly, I might consider some sort of tarp or tent to shield myself from the elements. Although sleeping under the stars, with sounds of the ocean all around me, would be nice. I would sun bathe, catch fish, and pick from all the bountiful variety's of island fruit.
On my island, "mine" because there's no one around to argue with me about it, there are plenty of animals that I can pleasantly observe and enjoy. Of coarse none that wish to eat me, nor I them. Hopefully I can keep my menu to the sea and to natures gifts of fruit. I don't consider my self much of a hunter; I guess if I had to hunt I would . I'd really prefer to make friends with the local wild life, then prey upon them.
The more I think about it, I might just give up my tarp or tent for a really good book. I can almost feel my self laying in the sun, cuddled in the warm sand, reading the day away. Heck, cause if I needed shelter, I'd just hop in my fifty foot Sea Cruiser. Now wouldn't I!!!!!!!!
