Boating Magazines and Books Make Great Gifts

Monday December 14, 2009
When you give boating books and magazines, you give the gift of knowledge that will reap rewards far after the wrapping paper has been tossed away. There are books that every mariner should have in their boating library including Chapman's Piloting and Seamanship and the Coast Guard Navigation Rules. Boating Magazines also reap dividends for months and will keep your boater informed and connected to their favorite hobby. Finally, help your boater save money with a DIY instructional DVD on an array of boating topics from knot tying to boat handling. Best Boating Gifts - Books and Magazines

From welcome rugs to T-shirts, personalizing an item with the name of their boat is a great gift to give a boater. This is especially true if the boater you know makes a living with their boat such as charter boat captains and tour boat operators. Some unique ideas for personalized gifts include etched glasses, clothing, boat gear and even drink coolies. Personalized Boating Gift Ideas Boating Gift Ideas
