Additionally, there are plenty of essentials you need to have on board for every journey. Aside from the necessities, you'll also find numerous gadgets and products which can improve your water experience. Let’s take a look at any array of yacht accessories to keep you safe and improve your time on the water.

These yacht accessories are a must-have for all boaters. Whether you’re looking for exclusive, luxurious products no other boaters have, or essential equipment, we’ve got you covered.

Compact and lightweight, this first aid kit is one of the essential yacht accessories. At only nine inches wide and weighing 1.2 pounds, it fits perfectly in any small area. Cleverly stocked with the essential first aid items, it’s suitable for common emergency situations. The 18-page guide helps you to administer first aid in a variety of common scenarios.

What’s included? Thirty medium bandages, ten alcohol preparation pads, ten mini finger bandages, twenty cotton tips, four knuckle bandages. It also includes four fingertip bandages, four butterfly bandages, five gauze pads, six antiseptic wipes, four sting relief pads, two PVC gloves, one disposable ice pack, one first aid tape, one trauma pad, one compass, one moleskin blister relief and much more. The quality of each product is excellent, as well as a strong and versatile bag included in the price.

You need to be prepared if there’s an injury on your boat or water, as emergency services can’t get to you as quickly as if you were on land. Ensure that you replace any products you use, to always remain safe in the event of an emergency. This is excellent value for money, and even if you never use it, it’s important to have it just in case.

Another to add to your list of yacht accessories, is a waterproof GPS device. Even though most yachts have built-in GPS navigation, it’s worth purchasing another separate product to be as safe as possible. In unlikely events, built-in GPS’ can become faulty, meaning emergency services can’t find you if necessary.

With a built-in memory of 1.7MB, this Garmin product stores plenty of information before you have to replace it. Thanks to its 65-K colour TFT display, you can clearly see where you are at all times at a quick glance. With a 20-hour battery life, it’s reliable and comes with an inclusive memory card slot.

We love that this GPS is waterproof and easily floats if it falls out of your yacht. Marine-friendly, it’s small and compact enough to hold.

This one-stop site offers an activity table and allows you to view your journey on a map via Google Earth. You can even upload and share your experiences on social media to connect with others.

We recommend adding solar panels to your yacht, because keeping batteries topped up can be an ongoing problem. You can’t always guarantee that the batteries can suffice the full performance of your water experience. Solar panels are now a popular option amongst boats, and there are a variety of options to choose from.

This is one of our favourite yacht accessories because it also helps to save the environment by using the sun’s energy to create power. This monocrystalline solar cell is ideal for marine and canal boats, yachts (though you may need multiple ones depending on the size of your yacht) and more. The high reliability is guaranteed to exceed three percent output power tolerance. The modules can also withstand high winds, snow loads, and extreme temperatures. Consequently, you don’t need to bring it indoors as weather conditions worsen.

The holes on the panels are pre-drilled for fast mounting and securing, making it perfect for non-permanent installations. The junction box on the panel is sealed and waterproof, ensuring it works at any time of the year. You can curve the solar panel to a maximum of 30 degrees and mount on multiple and uneven surfaces for a secure stance. The 25-year transferable power output ensures a 95 percent efficiency rate, so it’s an excellent choice for a long-term investment.

Even if you purchase the above solar panel product and have external batteries on your travels, we highly recommend bringing a portable charger with you too. This fast-charging power bank is suitable for multiple devices. This includes iPhone 6/6 Plus, iPhone 6s/6s Plus, Samsung Galaxy and other iOS and Android phones and tablets.

In terms of how long it lasts, it can charge an iPhone nearly eight times. It can charge an iPad Air almost two times, and a Galaxy S6 nearly six times. This is excellent in times of emergency when you need to contact people or emergency services. Although it’s high capacity, the compact size makes it easy to store and carry around so it doesn’t take up too much space.

The Dual USB ports allow simultaneous charging of your iPhone, Android, iPad and tablets. In total, it takes about six hours to fully charge multiple devices simultaneously. With multiple smart protection technology, it keeps your devices safe and prevents them from experiencing a short circuit or over-heating. This is certainly a must-have for your yacht, and you can make use of it out of the waters too.

The best products have a greater turning force and will turn your face upwards even when wearing heavy clothing.

There are also different types of activation systems for inflating life jackets. This refers to how it expands once in water.
