HULL-SCRAPER
This hull-cleaning tool is hardly the kind of
glamorous objet you’re used to on this page,
but it is remarkably useful for those who
have no cause to lift out once a season.
Su ce to say, it scrapes your hull clean. The
foam head has buoyancy enough to press
the cleaning blades upwards, saving any
tedious hard work. Price £79.99

HUMIDOR
“Who wants a humidor on a yacht?”
Frank Sinatra and Celeste Holm might
have sung in ‘High Society’. How
wrong they’d be. The Symphony
humidor provides the requisite
constant humidity for your smokes,
and it comes lined in brass pipes, for
the hell of it. Price €3,140 (c£2,771)
