The May issue of Practical Sailor is now online at www.practical-sailor.com. If you’ve got a teak deck that has been neglected for years, can’t live without an adrenaline rush, or are replacing your deck hardware, this is the issue for you. We look at teak cleaners, quick little multihulls, and those convenient little grippers known as cam cleats. We also compare some high-tech overhead lights for the galley, and sea-trial a man overboard recovery net called the Seascoopa.
As the sailing season sets in we’re gearing up for a busy test schedule. The past few days, we’ve been high above sea level testing bosuns chairs and mast climbing devices. Back on the ground, we be compared several paints designed for inflatable boats, and wrapped up our war against mildew.
Also in the works, a detailed buyer’s guide for networked marine electronics systems, featuring the latest from all the major manufacturers. The article is particularly timely given the recent news of Garmin’s offer to purchase Raymarine. We’ll help you find a system that meets your needs today and well into the future.
