Summer's Coming!
Get Your Boat Summer Ready
The weather is warming up, the days are getting longer and summer on the water is just around the corner. Now is the perfect time to give your boat a clean-up, check your gear and get those little jobs sorted before the busy boating season begins.
From cleaning and maintenance to anchoring gear, boat covers and hardware, Australian Boating Supplies has everything you need to get your boat ready for more days on the water.
Marvent Vents Are Back in Stock
We're excited to have our range of Marvent boat cover vents back in stock, just in time for summer.
Good ventilation helps reduce moisture, mould and mildew beneath your boat cover. The Marvent Boat Vent 3 provides 40% more venting than the previous Boat Vent 2, while its overhanging top helps reduce moisture entering the vent.
Available in black and white, the Boat Vent 3 requires no sewing or reinforcement and can be installed in less than 15 seconds.
The Marvent AERO is a sew-in option, ideal for applications where the Boat Vent 3 isn't suitable, such as cockpit covers. Its louvre front also helps keep out rain, bees and rodents.
New Stock from Osculati, Italy
We've also got new marine products arriving from Osculati in Italy. Known for its extensive range of quality marine hardware and accessories, Osculati is a great choice when you're upgrading, replacing or adding those finishing touches to your boat.
Keep an eye on our website and in-store for the latest arrivals.
Know Your Anchor Chain
Getting your anchoring setup ready is another important part of your summer preparation.
Anchoright Chain Markers make it easy to see how much chain you've deployed without relying on paint or cable ties. The screw-in markers are designed to stay securely in place and can be customised using the included guide plate.
For a practical setup, use an Anchor Indicator approximately 1 metre from the anchor and a Stop Indicator near the end of the chain. Marking every 5 metres from 2m to 20m, then every 10 metres from 30m onwards, provides an easy reference when anchoring.
Get Summer Ready
Before you head out, take the time to check your lines, fenders, anchor gear, pumps, lights, safety equipment and boat cover. A little preparation now can save you time and hassle once summer is in full swing.
Whether you're cleaning up, replacing worn gear or looking for something new for the boat, Australian Boating Supplies has you covered.
Get ready for summer and make the most of your time on the water.
