To own a boat is to accumulate marine-related tchotchke in the form of gifts. But there's an alternative just in time for the holiday season: the Basic Boater Kit from Shurhold. Not just for new owners, the collection includes essential gear and tools to clean a boat and keep it looking its best.
Made in the USA, the Basic Boater Kit begins with Shurhold's premium 6' Telescoping Handle. Heat-treated and triple anodized, the handle locks at four lengths between 40" and 72". This makes it easy to stow and simple to reach hardtops and waterlines. The included 3-in-1 Boat Hook, Soft Deck Brush and Flexible Water Blade with adapter snap onto the handle with the exclusive SHUR-LOK quick release system—as do over 40 other Shurhold tools and accessories.
Rounding out the Basic Boater Kit are a 32 oz. bottle of Brite Wash boat soap and a 14 oz. can of Serious Shine One Step Detailer. Three heavy-duty Microfiber Towels make short work of cleaning tasks.
