"These are the best dinghy hiking boot I've used. Without the removable ankle strap (great innovation), they provide a nice balance between mobility in the boat when on the move and solid foot support to lock in when hiking." - High cut boot Review by Anonymous, AUS.
#3: Thermal tops
Insulating tops are a must-have for sailing in cool conditions. Choose from our lightweight base layer tops or hydroflex tops, ideal for layering under jackets or wetsuits on cold days.

"This top is great for cool days especially when the water is still cold. The fleece breaths well even if the sun pops out. I requested the bright color some time ago. It's great for increased visibility." - Hydroflex top review by William T, USA.

#5: Polarized eyewear
The VIZE+ range of sunnies delivers a balance of performance, eye protection and design features that allow you to spot those wind shifts and tide lines.
"These polarised sunglasses are perfect for cutting glare from the water on a sunny day. Also seem to increase the definition of chop and waves. Pleasingly, the Vaikobi sunglasses retainers fit on snugly so there are no worries about these sunnies falling off." - Vaikobi sunglasses review by Guy G, AUS.
