14 – SPF Lip Balm
Boaters can never have enough lip balm. Between tucked away in jackets, in shore bags and in the cockpit, there’s always a need for another one.
15 – Sprouting Kit
Fresh sprouts on the boat are fantastic. This is a great little sprouting kit fit for any boat.
I could use a hot water bottle now. It’s gotten so cold in southern Florida and I’m shivering in bed 🙂 I’ll have to check out that sprouting kit. I’ve been thinking of experimenting with sprouting.
Sprouting is super easy on the boat, I wish I had done it years ago.
