Comfort on board a yacht plays an important role. Interparus will tell you about six interesting devices to increase the level of comfort on your boat.
When purchasing household items for a yacht, many are horrified by the prices on specialized websites. But don’t despair - your ingenuity will allow you to equip the salon, cabins and technical rooms for relatively little money.
The yacht's interior space is limited, so you will have to optimize the placement of your belongings. In such conditions, multifunctional objects and fixtures will become valuable interior solutions.
An important note: you should not save money by buying everything you need at Ikea, Target or your local market. It is important to distinguish between when it is worth investing in a quality lamp from a specialty store, and what small items can be purchased in bulk from an online store.
Solution 1: Hangers and Suction Cup Holders
Don't have enough space for towels or clothes, and don't want to drill holes in the walls? Then suction hooks are your choice. In addition to hooks, you can find small pockets on the suction cups - for example, for brushes or soap.
Suction cups will help secure other small items that are easily lost. The main disadvantage of such devices may be the insufficient reliability of the suction cups, so you should pay attention to the quality of the rubber and its hardness.
Solution 2: anti-slip oilcloths and tapes
Anti-slip oilcloths and tapes are classics of the yachting genre and almost a mandatory attribute on board. They are convenient to place not only on tables or near the stove, but also in wall lockers where kitchen utensils are usually stored.
This simple device not only prevents glassware from breaking, but also significantly reduces noise levels. Dishes in the drawers will not slide or knock against the walls of the locker during sudden tilts.
Solution 3: Magnetic Stands
Metal objects such as knives and forks can also become dangerous when heeling. A strong magnetic stand or stand will help prevent these items from flying around the cabin. However, it is important to ensure that the magnet is strong enough to hold the appliances securely.
It is also necessary to remember about safety: sharp objects should be stored in places out of the reach of children and protected from accidental access to prevent possible injury in the event of a roll.
Solution 4: Anti-slip carpet tapes
Knitted rugs often add a homey feel to a yacht's interior, but they can increase the risk of slipping, especially on varnished and slippery boat floors. Anti-slip tapes will be a reliable solution: they will ensure the stability of the carpets and prevent possible falls of crew members.
Solution 5: Soft storage baskets
When space is limited on board a boat, soft baskets are an excellent way to organize storage. Not only will they help you organize things neatly and economically, but they can also serve as containers for fruits and vegetables that won't spoil too quickly. Such baskets will add comfort and order to your yachting life.
Solution 6: Foam Mattresses
Due to the non-standard shapes and sizes of berths on yachts, traditional mattresses are often unsuitable. Custom foam mattresses can solve this problem. You can change the shape of such a mattress yourself using simple tools, even a regular knife, to cut the mattress to the desired size and shape.
In addition, foam mattresses perfectly adapt to the contours of the body and are resistant to mold formation and moisture accumulation. These qualities make a foam mattress an indispensable element on board a boat.
