  1. Tips to Consider When Choosing Foul Weather Gear

  2. Why do you need a Foul Weather Gear? If you're a fisherman, a boater, a racer, or a true-blue boat enthusiast, you need a sensible lineup of foul weather water-resistant and waterproof gear including waterproof fishing suits. But, you can’t just buy any foul weather gear! It is necessary to know the difference between the various foul weather waterproof fishing gloves, coats, packable, boots, and assortments of gear that can mean a world of a difference when you’re out on the high seas.

  3. How to Pick the right Foul Weather Gear? There are indeed several options to choose from when it comes to picking foul weather gear. But know that picking the right product for yourself requires you to know, among other things, how effectively they may or may not perform on the sea. In addition to protection and safety, there are several other considerations to bear in mind, let’s take a look at each of them individually!

  4. Weight of gear Primarily classified into lightweight and heavyweight. Lightweight gear is designed for use regularly in gentle to medium environments where mild rain spray and winds are likely. Seals. Heavyweight gear is heavily weighed and rugged. It delivers the best protection by keeping water out of every gap from harsh weather conditions with the hood, storm flaps, collars, and

  5. Non-slip/non-marking shoes Do remember that Non-marking shoes are important for not leaving scuff marks on boats as they’re designed to not rub off on surfaces when a user scuffs their boots. Non-slip shoes offer the best traction level, help prevent occupational injuries, and assist in keeping users secure on slippery decks. These are the ones to go for when you’re going to be walking on slippery boats and jetty rocks

  6. High visibility gear • High visibility gear is critical for maintaining protection on the high seas. • High-visibility gear such as coveralls and coats, especially made of fluorescent colored materials and reflective strips, are required by law in many industries and occupations. • This is an especially important safety consideration for fishermen and boaters who want to be seen on the water from afar.

  7. Height of boots v • Ankle boots may prove to be a better pick for recreational fishing and boat cleaning exercises, commercial fishermen would be better off with high boots. • As they’re going to be working in conditions where water runs over the tops of their boots, a quality pair of high waterproof ones will help ensure their boots don’t get filled with water now and then.

  8. Rip-proof, durable gear Good quality rip-proof gear is durable, almost impossible to rip or tear, and built to withstand everything and anything you put it through. PVC (polyvinyl chloride) is a common material used in the manufacture of rip proof foul weather gear as it is long-lasting, abrasion-resistant, and especially ideal for commercial fishermen who work with all sorts of hooks, lines, sinkers, rods, floats, baits, reels, lures, and other equipment that might cause their gear to tear.

  9. Waist pants vs bibs vs waders Waders are usually waterproof pants with some form of connected footwear. When fishing, this shields the user from the water and is often favored by boat anglers who don't fancy getting their trousers wet when hauling their catch. Bibs are waders in pant-style, typically PVC and Nylon combined with other fabrics to provide superior longevity and waterproofing.

  10. Technical features - The Cuffs When your hands are submerged in water, neoprene cuffs will help to protect the wrists and keep them dry. Elasticated cuffs are included on some foul weather coats and it would be a good idea to inspect them carefully. If they’re overly tight, you'll probably cut the seam open just to make it less constricting. Open cuffed foul weather coats are usually made of molded rubber, with the base of the cuff usually providing more surface space for the forearm.

  11. Packables or Dry Bags  Long-lasting, lightweight, waterproof and portable, dry bags ensure your belongings stay dry. While most dry bags are ideal for a variety of outdoor activities such as hiking, kayaking, boating, and so on, several come with a waterproof phone casing as a cool bonus.
