Welcome To Boat Stuff

Boat Stuff provides in-depth information on the small details of boats and boating. Its produced for the experienced skipper, those serious and passionate about their boats. There' s no fluff here, only clear concise information about the gear, techniques and doings of seasoned boaters, produced by seasoned boaters. We bring you what works and tell you why we think so. Our premise is best summed up by the following quote from The Sea by Rudyard Kipling. Written a hundred years ago, it resonates even more soundly in today's noisy marketplace.

This new ship here is fitted according to the reported increase of knowledge among mankind. Namely, she is cumbered end to end with bells and trumpets and clocks and wires. It has been told to me she can call voices out of the air or the waters to con the ship while her crew sleep. But sleep though lightly. It has not yet been told to me that the sea has ceased to be the sea.

Kipling, an experienced mariner, called it like he saw it. So do we.
