First, consider the insulation of your cooler. If you plan to keep cold drinks and food during long trips, a high-quality cooler can be expensive. Yeti coolers come in various sizes, with the Tundra 110 being the highest quality model. You can also consider the RTIC Ice Chest, which comes in 65-, 110-, and 145-quart models. While it's possible to find a low-cost version of an ice chest on Amazon, you'll be happy you invested in a high-quality model.
Being safe will help ensure everyone has a good time on your boat. Unforeseen events like someone falling overboard can happen, so be prepared. We have the gear to make sure you’re ready for any situation including life vests and an extensive selection of safety equipment, from life rings, throw cushions, life rafts, flares and signaling devices, to EPIRBs (Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacons) and PLBs (Personal Locator Beacons). Part of being safe means knowing where you are and being able to communicate. The VHF radios in our electronics equipment allow you to send out distress signals in case of emergency, get weather reports, and communicate with other vessels and the shore. Our navigation equipment can show you coordinates and where you are in relation to shore on charts that are visible on large, easy to read screens, and many can display depth, radar, and more.
Unlike cars, most boats typically aren’t sold with everything you need for a day on the water. When you buy a car, you can just fill the tank and go. But with a boat, you’ll likely need to add a good bit of equipment and accessories to set it up for your planned use — electronics, anchors, fishing rod holders, tackle storage, coolers, and many other convenience and safety items.
After having discussed the why, we want to highlight which boat and marine supplies should you be focusing on.
The space on boats and personal watercraft is always limited, so this small first-aid kit makes it easy to bring along. The small, palm-sized container contains bandages, antiseptics, sterile tools, and antibiotics to be used should there be a medical emergency.
