West Marine VHF 250 multi-band radio Price: $199.99 - The all-new VHF250 takes VHF radios to the next level of VHF technology and performance. The VHF250 also includes industry-leading features like VHF and Family Radio Service (FRS) tranception and AM, FM and aircraft band reception. The versatile VHF250 makes it just as easy to communicate from ship to shore, as from ship to ship with FRS tranception capabilities. And with AM, FM and aircraft band reception you can listen to AM or FM radio stations or aircraft band transmissions, including emergency locator beacon signals.

New West Marine Third Reef Foul Weather Gear (Bibs & Jacket) Retail: $199.00 -West Marine's new Third Reef foul weather gear provides great waterproof protection, but is now breathable to keep you feeling dry and comfortable. Perfect for a day on the water or weekend trips in moderate conditions. The breathable Oxford nylon fabric with a hydrophilic coating is treated with a Durable Water Resistant (DWR) finish, so water beads up instead of soaking in. Breathability means that body humidity passes through the fabric as vapor without letting in external moisture. The gear is fully lined, with a free-hanging nylon taffeta lining with mesh drains at hem and ankles, to keep you dry and comfortable. Form-fitting, ergonomically designed gear is cut for active movement with articulated elbows, adjustable waistband, hood, collar and hem. The fleece lined storm collar includes a high-visibility foldaway hood system that is one-hand adjustable.

USCG Approved Lifesling 2 Retail: $109.99 - Get your crewmember back onboard fast! Lifesling2 is Coast Guard approved and was proven to be most effective in recent Crew Overboard demonstrations conducted in San Francisco Bay. The Lifesling2 system consists of a flotation collar which is a blend of the traditional horeshoe buoy and a helicopter rescue sling. It's connected to 125' of multi-filament polypropylene retrieving line which allows the flotation to be towed or thrown to the overboard crewmember. The collar and line are stored for protection against the elements in a new more rigid and attractive storage bag. Graphics on the bag illustrate the instructions for recovering a person in the water.
