The old joke that B.O.A.T. stands for Break Out Another Thousand isn’t too far off base. In our experience it’s true because of all the dumb mistakes all boat owners make buying all the gear to support their great new habit. So instead of dropping a thousand, benefit from our mistakes and buy our pre-approved products listed below. Here is a list of our “10 must have” items aboard nearly every vessel. If you’d like your product considered for this list, please email: Products@TheCompleteCaptain.com

VHF

Recommended for short distance, crew-to-crew communications, or charged in a ditch bag, having a few of these is a must. Features include AIS, Waterproof, and Floating.

First Aid Kit

Recommended

Fishing Reel

(trolling for bluefin) Recommended

Boat Shoes

For traction on a wet and rocking boat we love the Olukai brand.

Coolers

For day trips, we highly recommend

Sunglasses

Polarized, wrap-around sunglasses are a must when you’re the water. Add quality and Style and you have Maui Jim.

Books

In my opinion, every boater needs to have this on board and read it frequently.

Toolkits

Recommended

Binoculars

Recommended

Knife/multitool

Every boater should carry a rust proof and durable knife all the time.
