Marine Accessories

Pets who boat are like friends who don’t. They can make great companions...or horrible shipmates. Here's what you'll need.

These rugged, portable fuel bladders fuel easily via durable fittings.

A great knife for any onboard task.

For years I've stowed my cell phone and handheld GPS in cupholders near the helm. Where else can you put these need-'em-fast gadgets? But they banged around loose, or flew onto the deck when the going got rough. To stave the damage, I tried Cockpit Mounts by Saeng/TA, which are intended for motorcycles and ATVs.

These black aluminum arms are held to the console by an adhesive base, or clamped to a grabrail or T-top. It supports a 2"-by-3" platform with a universal joint. Gear is held down by hook-and-loop fabric and an additional rubber security band ($6), which I recommend.
