5 Must-Have Gadgets for Summer Cruising

Summertime, and the boatin’s easy. But it will be even easier with these five gadgets for summer cruising.

Warm weather, longer days, and cool nights make summer cruising a treat. But these five gadgets will make summer cruising even more enjoyable. From long range cruisers to casual SUP enthusiasts, we’ve got the gadgets you’ll need this summer.

Trib Outdoors Tech Aircap

The gadget you didn’t know you needed, especially as the inflatables come out for summer. Trib Outdoors Tech has launched the first ever pressure gauge cap for inflatable SUPs, RIBs, and whitewater rafts. The Aircap is designed to make it easy for people to know the precise pressure in their inflatable at all times and accurately measures up to 20 PSI. The device is solar-powered, and a headlamp will provide enough light to power the gauge at night.

MSRP $34.95
