It’s that time of the year again, and whether you’re feeling nauti or nice, we have gift ideas that will have everybody sail-abrating! Gifting a Ranger Tugs or 400 Mercury Verado may be outside your holiday spending budget, but there are plenty of other options to please the boaters in your life. This guide will help you make a splash with any boat enthusiast. With the help of our very own boating specialists, we’ve put together a list of the top items to optimize on-the-water experiences and create a safer and more enjoyable time for your loved ones. And we carry these items, making your shopping experience a breeze.
Perhaps it's time you treat yourself to a new dinghy or suit up that yacht or fishing boat! Have a look at our extensive line of inflatable dinghies by great brands like Zodiac, Achilles, AB and more! These are typically lightweight, easy to set up, and easy to store. One option we can barely keep in stock is Highfield. These boats cater to the water-loving crowd, carefully considering all your needs. They are beautiful boats, not missing a detail from non-slip decking to bow steps on the classic model, you will turn heads in this boat.
Another exciting addition to the electric outboard team is the Mercury Avator. These motors are new to the game, but their gas counterpart is not. With over 80 years in the motor business, Mercury Marine You can expect a sleek look and quiet convenience paired with some power. Industry-first transverse flux motor technology generates high torque with little effort, maximizing battery life to extend your range while providing quick acceleration and efficient performance.
The Torqeedo Travel Series are electric outboard motors made with clean and state-of-the-art technology. These quiet and efficient high-tech outboards were created for tenders, dinghies, and day-sailers up to 1.5 tons. Performance is comparable to a petrol outboard, yet with nothing that can leak into the water, during transport, or in storage. These advanced outboards are also solar- chargeable on water or land, making them a top choice for those looking for an environmentally friendly alternative to petrol outboards.

We know getting in and out of a dinghy can be extremely tricky, especially at sea. One of our top requested items is a RIB ladder. Armstrong Nautical makes the best RIB Ladders in the industry. One of the best features of these ladders is that they require no holes or drilling. Instead, they are surface mounted to the tube sets with pads, which minimize friction and require limited labor to install. Also, these ladders do not swing under the boat; a pair of rubber friction wheels rest on top of the rub-strake, preventing these from turning downwards. They are very easy to use, store, and last forever! Not sure which size to get? Call our parts team at 805-644-6290 and we will help you choose which ladder is right for you! Now 10% OFF.
Another best seller is carry and stow storage bags. These are a huge asset to have in your dinghy, adding comfort and convenience on the water. Storage is often lacking in tenders and dinghies, and many of these include a large main pocket directly under the seat, as well as a pair of smaller pockets for sunscreen, extra drain plugs, snacks, whatever you need! Check out this under-seat storage bag by Achilles that also functions as an additional bench seat cushion! Now 10% OFF.
