In this article, we’ll take you on a discovery of four unusual accessories that you may have never seen, but may want to run out and buy to have on your boat!
Anti Jellyfish – Personal Sport – Stingblade
The makers of this “tab” say its blade (made using old fishing nets) is able to remove residue that remains on the skin after jellyfish stings, providing immediate relief. With its design, it is also perfect to keep strapped to your arm when exploring by canoe or kayak.

Bottom – Tankless Scuba System – DiveBlu3
The DiveBlus tankless diving system is a hose connected to a floating air tank that allows you to dive (and check to make sure everything is okay under the boat) without the worry of having heavy tanks on board (and on you). there are two systems available, one for dives down to 5 or 10 meters deep.

Smart funnel – Spill prevention – Clix
On the surface it looks like a simple funnel, in reality Clix is a small revolution. It is a product to be used when refueling, or when filling jerry cans, and allows you to stop dispensing when you get to “full.” An accessory that once bought becomes a never-without.

Anchored – VisionAnchor S
It is not a grippiale but a small buoy that connects to the anchor with a cable, and allows the exact position of the anchor to be known at all times, either on the smartphone or on the boat. A safety radius can be set within which the anchor can move, and if the anchor should exceed it, the system will alert us with an alarm.
