Hanging out in the calm water under the stars is a nice way to spend a summer night. But don’t get caught fumbling around in the dark trying to find another beverage or that fleece you tucked under one of the seats. These lights will all solve that problem, and they’ll make your boat look cool, too.

SuperNight Flexible Flash Strip
Sixteen feet of LEDs lighting up the floor and seats in your boat will make your passengers feel like they’re up in da club. Bathe your boat in the blue glow and bring on the night. There are 300 LEDs in this 12V SuperNight string, and you can cut it every three lights. This is easily $60 worth of ambiance for only $12.98 through Amazon.

AGPtEK Underwater Drain Plug Light
The AGPtEK underwater 6-LED drain plug light is perfect for fishing and diving. It has a waterproof connector, which is ideal for an underwater electrical device, and it offers three pretty colors – blue, red and green. You can get your AGPtEK light for $37.99 on Amazon.

T-HMarineUnderwaterLEDLight
Light up the lake beneath you with this T-HMarine underwater LED light. This light is proven to attract baitfish during night trips, and add ambiance to any vessel. I understand how the baitfish thing could be scientifically proven, but I’m curious what proof they have about the ambiance. You can buy this light on Amazon for only $17.50.

LED Running Lights
Every boat needs running lights, but most are far more pedestrian than these. This set of 12-inch red and green LED lights will give your boat a much more authoritarian feel. Throw on a badge and you can probably pull people over. They’re only $16.95 on Amazon, and you’re required to have running lights anyway, so you pretty much have to buy them.

Lazer Blue 5 LED Light Bar
Add this blue light bar to the running lights above and you have the full law enforcement package, guaranteed to make everyone else on the lake nervous. The Lazer Blue light bar has chrome body with 5ive super bright LEDs. Amazon has it for only $6.19.

Girl’s gotta ride the wake too! Looking for an inexpensive, beginner wakeboard to get the ladies in your boat hooked on jumping waves behind the bulging ballast bags on your inboard tow machine? Look no further than these five wakeboards that all cost right around $150 designed just for women.

Well, hello wakeboard with a cute little skull and a yellow ribbon in your (once was) hair. The Gator Lexy is a beginner wakeboard for girls who don’t mind being called chicks. ‘Cuz let’s face it, if you ride the Lexy you’re badass and want the world to know it. Maybe you’d never wear a yellow ribbon in your hair, but skulls don’t have hair and everyone needs a little accessorizing, even a zombie. The Lexy wakeboard measures in at 137cm, a little on the big side for fast & easy starts, and is aimed at women riders from 75-130 pounds. You should be able to find the Gator Lexy for less than 125 bucks – boots and yellow bow not included. Buy the Gator Lexy wakeboard.

The Liquid Force Angel is for little princesses that certainly don’t want a skull on their wakeboard. Although not a true beginner’s wakeboard, the Angel, if you can find a previous model year’s design is a good value at generally around $150 depending on the size and design. Like the Lexy, you’ll still need to get your own boots. The Liquid Force Angel will allow you a little more aggressive cutting power than a beginner board, but should still allow-entry level females some forgiveness, just like any angel should. Buy the Liquid Force Angel wakeboard.

The Ronix Krush Wakeboard is another women’s wakeboard that changes design year over year. So unless you have a crush on a certain Krush design the closeout models can be purchased for much less than the current board. This example, the Ronix Krush Polkadot is a 134cm example of a great beginner/intermediate wakeboard that will have your teenage girl taking high-flying selfies from the back of  her tow rope. You can lace up the Ronix Krush (after you buy your boots) and cut up the lake for right around $150. Buy the Ronix Krush wakeboard.

If theft is a problem in your area the CWB Board Co. Lotus is just the wakeboard for you. Nobody is stealing this ugly-ass wakeboard. Adorned with pink flamingo feathers it’s no wonder this 134cm wakeboard can purchased for less than $175. Girls deserve something cooler and CWB used to make some designs people actually wanted to purchase before the graphic design team started hallucinating. Though the Lotus is still a good starter board and like most wakeboards at this price point you’ll have to get some really ugly boots to go with it. Buy the CWB Board Co Lotus wakeboard.

The Hyperlite Eden women’s wakeboard might be named after a biblical garden, but it’s design is all modern. This is another beginner wakeboard that comes in either 130 or 135cm sizes. The best part is this board can be found online for well under $150. The Hyperlite logo is done up in a ransom-letter-like font and some colors that make it a cool board for both gals and the guy friends that may want to borrow it. Buy the Hyperlite Eden wakeboard.

‘Tis that time of the year when you clean a winter’s worth of dead bugs, dust and nesting mice from your hibernating boat and bring it back to sea-worthy glory. Mouse poop and dust are one thing, but here are a few products that receive high consumer marks for cleaning and detailing your boat to look like new again. Rejoice rodent fecal haters, marine cleaning help is on the way.

303 Aerospace Protectant is a UV-blocker designed specifically for marine applications. While you’re getting your bronze on, your boat’s vinyl seats are drying out like a grape morphing into a raisin. Think of 303 Aerospace Protectant as a sunscreen for your boat’s vinyl. With a name like Aerospace Protectant, you can tell they’re not fucking around, this stuff is the equivalent of keeping your vinyl as white as your ass. More than 1,000 Amazoners say this marine & boat vinyl protector works, so who am I to judge when they’ve already done the testing? Available in quantities from 2 ounces to 5 gallons, try before you buy and if it works, stock up and use it on your pancakes. 303 also makes a marine carpet and upholstery cleaner, which receives high marks for removing Cheeto stains. Yeah, better get you some.

For those of you affluent enough to actually have boats with genuine teak wood in them, an annual application of teak oil is as important as whitening your teeth. Starbrite Premium Grade Teak Oil makes your old wood look new again. My boats all have simulated teak-grain finish, that eliminates the need for maintenance, but sure doesn’t scream “I killed trees to impress my neighbors” like genuine teak does. Pay no attention to me, I’m just jealous of your wood. Rub this oil on your wood vigorously and generously to maintain a warm teaky glow on furniture, docks, helms and swim platforms. Yeah, better get you some.

If your boat looks like a chalkboard it’s most likely caused by oxidation. For those of you who slept through junior high school science class, oxidation happens when oxygen molecules interact with a material – in this case, your boat’s dinghy fiberglass. Meguiar’s Marine and Fiberglass Restoration System is designed to remove the oxidation, add a protective film, then shine it all up like like a polished nickel. Now if that were one step, that would be nice, but this one is three, so it’s gonna take some old-fashioned time and elbow grease to get your boat looking good again, but at least you know Meguiar’s packages it all together nicely so you can avoid return trips to WalMart. Yeah, better get you some.

Now this little boat-detailing number gets a full-on five star review from boat buffs like you. Mother’s Marine Spray Wax is for general upkeep and shine. It’s the go-to spray after you spent the better part of three weekends applying Meguiar’s. It promises to remove water spots and general grime from your boat.  Anybody concerned with water spots on a boat has some sort of OCC-ish disorder and most likely is just polishing the thing on a trailer in the garage anyway. So hey, garage polishers, why not use the best boat detailing wax – 16 solid Amazon recommendations can’t be misguided. Yeah, better get you some.
