Practical Gifts

We think practical gifts are always a safe bet and very unlikely to be sent to the cupboard of no returns! Multitools are always a great gift and our best selling multitool the Leatherman Wave+ is very competitively priced! For craftier folk, why not gift some traditional splicing equipment such as a sailmakers palm or swedish fids. For those still learning then ropes, our knot kits make a great gift for little or big skippers!
