By now, the skipper in your life has probably dropped a few hints about holiday gifts. Was it the note left on the coffee pot about Articulated ABS Barrel Hinge foldable Aluminum Tubing? At first glance, one would have thought that the message was a reminder about being out of coffee filters. Then it comes back to you that there was a conversation in the car about GemLock Assembled Folding Struts.    Foldable aluminum tubing is one of the hottest trends in stainless steel hardware for marine canvas and solar panel frames. The tubing offers versatility in styling, high quality, and ease of use. https://www.clrmarine.com/462m4/manufacturers/g/gemini-marine.html   Back to your captain's holiday gift list. Was there a subtle hint, while you both were swimming off the boat, and your skipper showed concern that the transom ladder seemed a little short by a few steps? She would find getting out of the lake sooooo much easier if she didn't have to reach her foot up so far to the lowest step. She had also mentioned a discussion with other boat captains about the Extend Your Step, an easy-to-use boat boarding ladder extension. Several of her sailing buddies already have them and raved about the ease and portability. .   All of the products mentioned above are available at CLR Marine.com. How confident are the folks at CLR Marine about the Extend Your Step regarding ease in boarding and extending the ladder length? This product reflects the confidence and integrity of CLR Marine's owner, Chuck Reed. He invented the Extend Your Step! When shopping for the extending ladder, be sure to check out the Extend Your Step Three – a longer and non-moving version of the Extend Your Step! https://www.clrmarine.com/Boat-Boarding-Ladder-Extension   It's possibly time for your captain to give the best seat in the house – on your boat- an upgrade.

Stern rail seats are now available for older model boats, even pre-1993, and the seats are removable. https://www.clrmarine.com/sternperch-seats.html     Stocking Stuffers   Floatable key rings.

Imagine a warm Saturday evening at your local sailing club. Three boats motor out to the middle of the moonlit lake and raft up. The one in the middle drops its anchor to keep the raft in place. Everyone puts on a swimsuit and jumps over the side. The lake is fed by a river and you can feel the cool stream of water as it moves past your body. Once you are sufficiently cooled off, you swim up to the boat to get back in board and, looking up, see that the top of the transom looks as high as the Eifel Tower. How in the world are you going to pull yourself out of the water, over the side, and on board? No problem, you say. Well, if you haven't tried it you have no idea just how hard that act can be. This is particularly true for young children, and for older folks. And just to scare you some more, entire crews have succumbed to hypothermia after jumping over the side of a sailboat that drifted in a total calm in the middle of the ocean, just because no-body thought about a  boarding ladder or at least dropping a line over the side.   Boarding or swim ladders should be listed as necessities, not just to climb back on board after taking a dip, but also to have as means of getting crew back on board after getting in involuntarily. The issue is a bit less pressing on modern boats with built-in transom steps, but it is still a good idea to have at least a collapsible, removable ladder on board. Swim ladders come in a wide variety of styles but there are a few designs features to consider for usability and practicality, especially on a trailerable boat. Use ladders with hull stand-offs that provide more stability. There should be at least a couple of rungs extended down below the water surface, which makes it easier to get a foot on the bottom rung, to push the body weight up, especially for a fully clothed person who fell in the water. Many boats have folding boarding ladders attached to the transom. A folding ladder is an excellent solution to both routine and emergency re-boarding. Every high-sided boat should have grab rails or steps located at the transom. This will allow a person to hang on while re-boarding.
