There’s nothing quite like the promise of summer on the water. Longer days, gentle sea breezes, and the thrill of setting a course all contribute to what makes sailing in the warmer months so special. But before you cast off, it’s vital to ensure your boat is fully equipped and ready for the season ahead
At Mylor Chandlery & Rigging, we’ve got everything you need to make this summer a safe, enjoyable, and stress-free experience afloat.
Get Prepping for a Smooth Summer
Preparation starts with maintenance. After months of winter weather and storage, a thorough inspection of your boat’s core systems can save time, money, and potential headaches down the line. From engine servicing and anode replacement to plumbing checks and fuel system cleans, our maintenance range covers all the essentials.
Whether you’re topping up on engine oil, replacing tired water pumps, or renewing your filters and belts, we’ve got you covered. With high-quality products from trusted marine brands, our stock ensures you're not left scrambling when something needs fixing.
Of course, getting your rigging right is equally important, especially during the busy summer season.
Safety Equipment for Every Boat Outing
Safety is paramount when it comes to summer sailing, no matter how calm the weather may seem. Warmer months often bring busier waters, changing conditions, and longer days on board, making reliable safety equipment more essential than ever.
Ensuring your lifejackets are properly serviced, flares are in date, and fire extinguishers are ready for use should be top priorities before any voyage. It’s also a good time to review your onboard first aid kit, emergency grab bag, and personal safety gear such as harnesses and tethers — especially if you’re sailing with children or less experienced crew.
Here at Mylor Chandlery & Rigging, we stock a wide selection of trusted safety essentials and can help guide you through any upgrades or replacements to ensure you and your crew are fully prepared for the season ahead.
Appropriate Clothing
Once your boat is in peak condition, it’s time to turn your attention to outfitting. We have a wide range of clothing and footwear, designed for men, women, and children, from premium, high quality technical gear from manufacturers Henri Lloyd and Gill Marine.
We have specifically sourced a range of products suitable for all offshore, inshore and coastal activities to keep you warm & dry and get the most out of your yachting, dinghy or watersport activiy.
As summer unfolds, there’s no better time to ensure your vessel is well-equipped, your rigging is reliable, and your onboard essentials are in top shape. At Mylor Chandlery & Rigging, we combine hands-on expertise with a comprehensive product range to help you sail confidently, safely, and in comfort.
Whether you're preparing for a weekend getaway or a longer coastal adventure, our team is here to support every stage of your journey.
Set sail this summer with the peace of mind that comes from knowing you’re properly prepared, and let Mylor be part of every nautical mile ahead.
Happy summer sailing!
