Women’s Sailing Accessories

3 essential accessories to pair with your Sailiz dungarees

Life on the water would be too easy if all you needed was a pair of dungarees! But women’s sailing accessories are just as important and can make your life easier once at sea.

At Sailiz, dungarees are technical and comfortable gear, but for us, they are also a safety element.

Here are 3 more women’s sailing accessories related to safety.

1. A pair of gloves:

It may seem obvious, but they are often forgotten!

While sailing, our hands are primarily engaged, so it’s crucial to protect them!

Gloves protect your hands against abrasion and blisters caused by handling ropes and sailing equipment. Ropes can be rough and put pressure on your hands, especially in windy weather. Gloves offer an extra layer of protection, thus reducing the risk of injuries and discomfort.

It’s an essential women’s sailing accessory for a better grip: This allows you to handle ropes with more precision and control, which is essential for precise and efficient maneuvers,

Fatigue reduction: By reducing abrasion and discomfort caused by repeated rope handling, gloves can help reduce fatigue in the hands and associated muscles. This allows you to remain more alert and effective during longer periods of sailing.

You don’t have to wear them constantly, but it’s wise to have a pair in your dungarees pocket! Ready for use when needed.

2. A good knife:

Always keep a pocket free for this essential accessory!

The goal: to have it accessible. For maximum efficiency and to avoid confusion, keep a pocket reserved for this tool! With Sailiz dungarees, it’s easy! There will always be a free pocket.

Its main function? Safety! It’s an essential accessory with multiple functions. It can be used to quickly cut lines in case of knots or in a dangerous situation, such as a jammed sail or a rope tangled in the propeller. A reliable and sharp knife is necessary to make these cuts quickly and efficiently, which can be vital for ensuring the safety of the crew and the boat.

The keyword? Versatility: A good knife can have multiple functions and be used for a variety of tasks on board.

Sailiz recommends a knife with a sharp blade and a shackle opener option. Nothing is more annoying than getting stuck because of an overtightened shackle.

3. Life jackets:

We rarely like them; they’re bulky but truly important! Life jackets are essential for ensuring everyone’s safety on board, especially in an emergency or if someone falls overboard. They help maintain a person’s buoyancy if they fall into the water. They are equipped with ‘crotch straps,’ meaning they pass between the legs. This ensures they stay securely in place. Mandatory on board, but not necessarily worn, they are often left at the bottom of drawers.

It’s our most essential of essential accessories, because without it on board, there’s no way you’re going sailing!

Life jacket and dungarees, a source of discomfort? Well, not always! The advantage of our dungarees: They are so comfortable and adapted to our body shape that wearing a life jacket isn’t so bad after all. The life jacket is also there to reassure us, making us feel more confident, provided we have full freedom of movement.

Women’s Sailing Accessories: The Usefulness of the Stand-to-Pee Device

Sailing as a woman can sometimes present additional challenges, especially when it comes to finding practical solutions for natural needs. This is where the stand-to-pee device comes in, an often-overlooked but incredibly useful accessory. Designed specifically to allow women to urinate standing up, it offers a practical and hygienic solution, particularly during long sea voyages. By enabling female sailors to stay on deck without compromising their comfort or hygiene, the stand-to-pee device becomes an indispensable ally for all those who set sail. And don’t worry, an opening is provided for its use on the Sailiz dungarees!
