Reply to: Christmas Gift List For Sailors

[quote=DamonLinkous]What's on your wish list? It's still early enough that you can shop online, if you are like me and avoid stores like the plague this time of year. I was repacking my sail bag and thought I'd put some suggestions out there so you can give links to anyone who asks for suggestions for your gift. Three things every sailor needs. (feel free to add to the list) I keep these three attached to my PFD. 1. [b]Handheld VHF Radio[/b], I have had the ICOM M34 for 4 or 5 years and it's worked like a champ, great battery life. The current model appears to be the ICOM M36 [url]http://www.amazon.com/Icom-01-Floating-Handheld-Marine/dp/B001PUA91Y[/url] [url]http://www.westmarine.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=10001&storeId=11151&partNumber=10344513#.UMjO-TQUW14[/url] 2. Handheld GPS, the Garmin Etrex series are basic models with good battery life and waterproof (at least good enough for our purposes, not for diving) [url]http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias%3Delectronics&field-keywords=garmin%20etrex[/url] [url]http://www.westmarine.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/SiteSearch?storeId=11151&langId=-1&catalogId=10001&pageSize=10&beginIndex=0&sType=SimpleSearch&searchTermScope=3&Ns=Most+Popular%7C0&keyword=garmin+etrex[/url] 3. Waterproof Pocket Camera, I've had the Pentax [url=http://www.amazon.com/Pentax-Waterproof-Digital-Camera-Optical/dp/B0019V2CR8/ref=sr_1_11?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1355337828&sr=1-11&keywords=pentax+optio+w90]Optio W60[/url] for several years but I'm a Nikon fan so have my eye on the Nikon AW100 [url]http://www.amazon.com/Nikon-COOLPIX-Waterproof-Digital-Camera/dp/B005IGVY92/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1355337931&sr=1-1&keywords=nikon+waterproof+digital+camera[/url] OK, release your inner Santa and add to the list. 8-)[/quote]
