It’s that time of the year again where you just can’t seem to finalise your gift list. You know that feeling when you just don’t know what to give someone who almost has everything? Or someone you just can’t tell what they truly like? Or maybe it’s a friend or relative who’s a yacht enthusiast? 

It can be hard to think of a gift for people who are boat and yacht lovers. If you have a family member or friend whose joy is sailing through the waters, you know how it feels. People who are hobby-oriented like yacht enthusiasts might tell you that they don’t want anything for the holidays. Even though that may be true, everyone would surely appreciate a little present. Most especially, if it is something that suits their liking.

To help you choose a gift that your yacht enthusiast person will surely love, here are 5-holiday gift ideas to read on. 

1. Sunscreen

If there’s one thing that the internet has taught us over the last decade, it is skincare. Thanks to dermatologists and skin specialists, we’re finally understanding how important it is to protect our skin. Regardless of whether it is winter or summer, UV light is truly harmful to the skin.

If you happen to be an owner under fractional yacht ownership, sunscreen can be a great gift idea for your co-owners. Experts say that even during winters and cloudy days, the sun emits UV. This means that unless you’re indoors and 100% covered from any natural light, you’re free from UV.

If you’re a yacht enthusiast yourself, you know how often yacht lovers stay outdoors. To prevent and protect the skin from any damage, sunscreen is a must. You can also add a little note of skincare tips to the person you’re giving it to. It can be a simple note like “to keep your skin healthy in your travels.” 

2. A personalised compass, yacht, or boat keychain

Other people might think that keychains are so out of style already. You might even have this connotation that keychains are just a ‘last-minute’ gift idea. Well, I beg to differ. Keychains aren’t just cute. They’re also useful. 

We all have important keys that we need and use daily. Giving a personalised boat-related keychain to a yacht enthusiast person surely is a great idea. To make it more unique and meaningful, you can add texts for engravement. 

Let’s say you plan to gift a sailor hat keychain. You can have the name of the recipient engraved on the top of the hat. Then, you can add another rectangular keychain with a text that says “A sailor at heart since 1979.” Whatever it is that reminds you of the person, say it with a text. An inside joke would be great, too. A little laughter for their every day will surely make a big difference. 

3. A compact emergency light 

If you know someone who is not really into material things, one great gift idea is to give them something practical. One of which is an emergency light. Nowadays, a lot of compact yet powerful emergency lights are available in the market.

This could be a great gift for someone who loves to go sailing even when the sun is about to set. If you know people who are in yacht syndication, this could be a nice gift as well. Surely, people would appreciate receiving a compact and practical gift that they can utilise on board. 

To suit it to their liking, you can add a personalised sticker to the emergency light. It can be as simple as their name or their yacht model. Even the date of their birthdays would do as well. 

4. Sailing gloves

If you have someone on your list who loves to sail all year round, even in winter, sailing gloves could be the perfect gift for them. It’s nice to have a quick sail during winter. But, it’s better if you’re comfortable and warm enough to enjoy your travel.

Sailing gloves could also be a perfect gift for your co-owners if you are a part of shared yacht ownership. You can have these personalised as well with a person’s initials or even just by colour. You don’t need to buy from a luxury brand. Just look for one that is of high quality and is useful during the cold. This is a great gift if you have a lot of yacht enthusiasts on your list. 

5. Yacht fabricoat or saltwater remover 

Lastly, if you think the 4 previous gift ideas aren’t ideal for your recipient, maybe all they need is a yacht fabricoat or yacht saltwater remover to maintain the condition of their boat. If you know someone whose yacht has sun-faded panels or interiors, a fabricoat is a great gift idea.

For sure, your yacht enthusiast recipient would appreciate receiving a saltwater remover for their boat. Most especially if they often sail on seas and in different locations. Give them a brand that they haven’t tried before. Or a cleaner that they haven’t heard of. A fresh brand for them to try is always a great gift idea. 

Who knows? Maybe they’ll like how it works well on their yacht. It’s nice to be the one to introduce something that they’ll love for a long time. 

Something practical is better than something expensive that they wouldn’t even utilise for a long time.

If you can’t still finalise your gift ideas for your yacht lover recipient, here’s a simple tip. Always look for something that they’ll be utilising and not something that will only be kept on a shelf. It would be nice to gift something that the person will get to use and maximise regularly. 

Remember, you don’t need to spend on something expensive that they won’t even use most of the time. It’s better to gift something practical and useful for their yacht travels and sails. It would be nice to see someone enjoying and using your gift as much as they can instead of the other way around.
