Accessories
Sailing Clothing Accessories
We stock a wide range of accessories to compliment your sailing clothing. So whether you're looking to protect your deck shoes with some footwear protector spray, or your knees with Spinlock Knee Pads, we've got all the clothing accessories you need for a day out on the water.
Sailing Gloves
Keep your hands protected with our excellent range of Sailing Gloves, sourced from leading brands including Gill, Musto, Maindeck and Sealskinz. Sailing gloves provide exceptional levels of grip and abrasion resistance, without sacrificing any flexibility or durability. Short Finger Sailing Gloves are perfect for warm days out on the water, whilst Long Finger Sailing Gloves offer a little more warmth in the winter. Gill's 3 Season Gloves are the perfect choice for those days in-between.
Sunglasses
Gill Marine Sunglasses provide clear, contrasting, glare-free vision that exceeds EN safety coating. The floating sunglasses have a hydrophobic outer coating that sheds water and reduces salt residue for clear vision, whilst oleophobic technology repels fingerprints, sun lotion and skin oils. As the lenses are polarised, they block glare produced by light reflecting off the water.
Garmin Marine Smartwatches
Garmin's Quatix is the perfect smartwatch for boaters. The watches have a huge range of marine-focused features including Fusion-Link Audio control, Garmin SailAssist, Autopilot control and BlueChart G3 Charts, plus all the features you would expect from a smartwatch, like heart rate monitoring, sports apps, satellite navigation, smart notifications and Garmin pay.
The standard Quatix 7 GPS Smartwatch has a battery life of up to 16 days, a figure dwarfed by the Quatix 7X Solar GPS Smartwatch, which boasts a battery life of up to 30 days, thanks to solar charging.
