Sailing watches are a very helpful tool to have when on the water. They can be used as a count down timers before a race start or just a large clock on deck or can be attached to the mast or boom.
The OS series 3 watch is one of if not the most popular sailing watches. The large display with clear to read numbers allows the watch to be read from across the boat. The elasticated strap let you mount it on the boom or mast without needing any tools or mounting brackets.
The key reason this watch is used for sailing is for the count down timer. The large display and large easy to use buttons are great for use with gloves or cold hands. The loud countdown sound lets you know each minute and count down to go.
The countdown timer has different options to allow anyone at and sailing event to find one that works for you.
Count down timers,
The watch that stands out for all the right reasons is available in a range of colours.

Available in white or yellow
Unsure about the size of the yellow and white big sailing watches?
We also have Optimum Time Series 11 in White, Blue and Black.
The series 11 watch is less expensive than the big sailing watch and still packs many of the great features of the larger watch in this smaller package. Can be worn for every day and on the water. With the same range of countdown pre-sets as the bigger watch in a small and more compact package.
We also have the new Series 15 watch from Optimum time this watch has been a very popular watch since its launch. An increase in screen size over the series 11 makes it easier to read when sailing. This watch uses the tried and tested chips and components as the very popular series 3 watches. The introduction of the strong mineral glass face and a removable strap make this a step up from the series 11 watches.

The Zihk Sailing kit bag is very well-made and much more practical than my rucksack. The ordering process was slick and the delivery was fast. I’m looking forward to my next sailing trip with this product. Good price too, thank you!

I recently purchased the Sprint 15 Trampoline Cover from Sailing Chandlery, and I couldn't be happier with my choice. The cover is made from high-quality PVC material that feels durable and built to last, even in harsh weather conditions.
The fit on my Sprint 15 is absolutely perfect—it's snug and secure, ensuring that the trampoline stays protected from rain, sun, and dirt. The attention to detail, like reinforced edges and reliable fastenings, really sets this cover apart.
It’s clear that a lot of thought went into the design, making it both functional and easy to use. The vibrant blue color adds a nice touch and is easy to spot in the boat park.
Shipping was fast, and the customer service from Sailing Chandlery was top-notch. They kept me updated throughout the process and ensured a smooth transaction.
If you're looking for a reliable cover for your Sprint 15, I highly recommend this product. It's a fantastic investment to keep your boat in great shape!
The Topper rope pack arrived shortly after I ordered it. Very good service from Sailing Chandlery. I will fit it when I get home.
The sail numbers were simple to attach
Great value for money and swiftly delivered as always by Sailing Chandlery.
Very good sunglasses, I’ve just had eye surgery and was struggling with peripheral light sensitivity, these are great for that and will be terrific next season sailing.
Great to see these available again, much better quality and sensitivity than the alternatives
We have just purchased the Mersea twin Laser box trailer. Ordering the trailer, and adding the lid afterwards, was easy and straightforward with accurate lead times for its delivery. We paid for delivery to the South Coast and the trailer arrived bang on time along with other items we ordered. Fantastic customer service all round!
The trailer had its first trip this weekend, a 3hr drive on a mixture of town, country and motorway roads and it was a dream to tow - no noise save the odd rattle across potholes, easy to see in the car mirrors and very easy to connect and pull. It's also easy to manoeuvre two by just two people.
Our junior sailor was delighted by capacious box section with two access points and he was able to stow all of his kit to travel and then all covers, bags and kit whilst on the water today.
We're very pleased with the trailer - thank you Sailing Chandlery!
Good quality splicing tool, sensible price and swiftly delivered. Thank you
