Buying framework
Five checks before adding gear
- Job: What specific problem will it solve?
- Fit: Does its size and mounting method suit the boat?
- Environment: Is it intended for sun, spray, vibration and corrosion exposure?
- Power: Can the electrical system support it safely?
- Access: Will installation block movement, controls or safety equipment?
Prioritize first
- Legally required safety equipment
- Reliable docking and anchoring basics
- Weather and communications appropriate to the trip
- Secure storage for loose equipment
Buy later
- Single-purpose gadgets without a repeated need
- Equipment that cannot be secured underway
- Electrical loads without circuit planning
- Products with unclear marine suitability
