I prefer to go sailing because baseball, football, tennis, and golf only require 1 ball!

Having said that he will also get very excited about.. a Velocitec or similar GPS/ digital speedo. some racing sunglasses A new lifejacket A gift voucher for his prefered supplier. A drysuit Or you could suggest he orders himself a new sail. It really all depends on your budget. | | | Re: Gift ideas for my sailing hubby!

I need to add a large garden type pump sprayer, for washing off the boat and myself. If you leave it in the sun it's warm enough to shower.

Posts: 5,525 | None of us think about safety enough (if at all). You might look at things like knives, radios, epirbs. Oh! Pfd! My guess is he didn't really do his homework on those items. An unusual source, but you might look here. http://www.nrsweb.com/ I like their rash guards. My wife calls them leotards.
