September brings some of the most rewarding sailing days of the year - steady winds, fewer crowds, and that unmistakable autumn light on the water. Whether you're catching the last few races of the season, cruising with friends or ticking off some sailing goals before autumn comes, we've got the tips, gear and inspiration to help you make the most of every moment afloat.
This is the perfect time to give your kit a quick check, fine-tune your boat, and maybe even treat yourself to an upgrade or two. A little preparation now can make a huge difference in your comfort, safety, and performance out on the water.
It’s also worth thinking ahead to autumn and winter sailing. Sorting your gear early means you’re ready for colder sessions without the last-minute panic. Waterproof layers, thermal base wear and reliable boots can turn a chilly day into an enjoyable one, giving you confidence to sail all year round.

Come and join us for a weekend of fun, social and exciting racing on the East Coast.

Nice-looking bung, all in one piece. No more looking for the bung when you have let it drain from the last time, and bought this to create a second drain socket in my Solo.

It fits exactly fine to laser pico. Straps are very usefull. Hole at the back helps you store your upper mast easily under the cover. Looks very durable. Delivery was very fast. Thanks

Great product, safely packaged, delivered on time, at a competitive price. One more thing - the person on the end of the phone is an actual person, informative, helpful, knowledgeable and pleasant. What more could you ask for.
Fantastic price for first class quality
They work well
Fantastic product. Toasty feel
Really good selection of rope sizes, delivered speedily. Great idea to put the offcuts to good use. Caused a few laughs when people realised what I'd ordered ;-)
The sales team were quick responding to our questions, dispatched to us promptly, and the product is a perfect replacement for our old tiller which ended up at the bottom of a lake!
Love the fact they don’t leak.
You do need to squeeze to get liquid out. Which is so much better. Don’t lose liquid etc.
nice size and robust
Great for when it’s not too cold. But is windy and wet. Needing to stay dry on top.
Very easy to install. May need some additional sealing for complete water-tightness.
