Beyond the Basics: Boating Edition

For the perfect beach vacation, you already know to pack your sunblock, suit, towels, and plenty of water. But when it comes to boating, Pensacola is the place to be for locally crafted gear.


Here are some of our very own that we can't recommend enough:


No more “two-man lifts” from the car to the boat, beach, or pier. Haul it all in one trip with a customizable dock cart designed to “hold my beer” and so much more.

Our flag pole holders make it easy to display your gratitude to those who have served, and those who have given the ultimate sacrifice to protect your freedoms. On Memorial Day, Independence Day, and every day, our flag pole holders keep Old Glory firmly in place no matter what.


There are plenty of fish in the sea, so bring plenty of fishing poles! When you add rod holders to your setup, you can effortlessly bring along all your fishing poles over the weekend. These help you stay organized, and avoid wasting space on deck.
