Best Boat Accessories 2023 – Seven very useful boat accessories
Recharge your phone wirelessly and safely, bring aboard the necessities for a cruise of a few days without filling or using the refrigerator, light the cockpit without light bulbs, and more. With these seven accessories you can change your on-board habits, and make your boat modern, in step with 2023.
Boat Accessories 2023 – Wireless Catch Charger – Scanstrut
The smartphone has now become the secondary interface of in-vehicle electronics. Having it charged at all times is essential, and Scanstrut comes to our rescue with this accessory. This product solves the problem of lost, broken or damaged cables on board forever. It is a small device (7.8 x 8 cm) that uses a spring mechanism to hold the smartphone firmly in place, ideally at the side of the console. To charge the smartphone, if it supports wireless charging, simply place it in the center of this charger.
Kicker Sound System – Indemar
Kicker Marine speakers are made to ensure perfect sound on the boat, even in adverse conditions, and to withstand shocks, sun and water. UV treatments on injection molded cones, Santoprene edges, and grids help maintain top performance over time. These speakers can withstand almost all weather conditions thanks to their sealed splash and splash-resistant motors. The speaker hardware is made of 316L stainless steel, impossible to corrode.
Patrol 35 – Dometic
Many boats now have a refrigerator installed on board, but a super cooler can always come in handy, as outdoor enthusiasts know. Not only for those who fish, who can store their catch in here instead of in the live tank, but also for those who only have a small refrigerator. Dometic’s ice chest, here in the 36-liter denomination, can hold ice for several days, according to the manufacturer. For a small expense you secure space to keep food, drinks and water cool without the need for feeding.
Apollo – Fusion
The Fusion Apollo marine audio entertainment system enables full on-board integration. This series from Garmin’s Fusion brand includes the first boating stereos compatible with Apple AirPlay 2 via Wi-Fi , i.e., they allow users to control music directly from any compatible Apple device connected to the same Internet network as the stereo, ideally that of the boat. The stereo allows you to control the overall volume or decide on a different volume for each speaker installed on board.
Floating pontoons – Ingemar
Ingemar is the leading Italian company in the market, in Italy and worldwide, of structures and piers for ports and marinas. For more than 40 years Ingemar has been producing and placing floating jetties and breakwaters in different geographical areas, suffice it to say that the latest projects have been in Nigeria and Dubai.
Boat Accessories: LamLight – KanvasLight
The basis of LamLight’s operation is an electrically powered LED light source. The light is then transported from the source through the evenly interwoven optical fibers. There is no electricity in the composite, which is formed by the flexible and strong optical fibers. The solution can be installed almost anywhere, sewn or Velcroed to walls or sofas, down to floors and the hull.
Boat Accessories: Bluetooth Sound System – Riviera Genova
How do we spread the music in our smartphone throughout the boat, using the music library or streaming services such as Apple Music and Spotify? Using the brand new sound system developed by Riviera. By taking advantage of the Bluetooth connection, there will be no need to wire the audio system, making it easier to install on board and avoiding work below deck. The system can rely on 80 watts RMS per channel and allows up to 8 speakers to be connected.
