Marine Products Pro Shop Says Don't Leave These Things at Home When Sailing

Your Marine Products Pro Shop Knows What All the Professional Sailors Keep In Their Pockets 

Raritan Engineering Company your macerator pump analysts would like to share with you these topics we thought would be of interest to you this month regarding essential tools not to leave at home when sailing. 

Your macerator pump experts know that YBW asked professional and amateur sailors what they kept in their sailing jacket pocket when they are out on the water. What do you keep in yours? 

5 things in my pocket:

Knife – I never sail without a knife
Phone – Especially if I am sailing on the coast. It also has my nav software on there and I can get weather information
Waterproof case for the phone, as electronics and seawater don't mix
Piece of flapjack which has to be homemade
Cup of tea…it's not really in your pocket…oh..perhaps a compass.

Dee Caffari

Dee Caffari has sailed around the world five times.

Your marine parts suppliers professionals know that in 2006, she became the first woman to sail solo, non-stop, around the world against the prevailing winds and currents and was awarded an MBE in recognition of her achievement.

In April 2011, she successfully completed another circumnavigation. Your marine parts and accessories analysts understand that with completion of the Barcelona World Race, Caffari became the only woman to have sailed three times around the world non-stop.

During training, the team successfully claimed the Round Britain and Ireland speed record for a female crewed monohull in 4 days 21 hours and 39 seconds.
