Boating Equipment & Accessories

Everything the Eastern Cape boater needs — from navigation electronics and anchoring gear to fishing tackle, safety equipment, and vessel maintenance products. 

Kitted Out & Ready to Launch

Whether you’re a weekend ski-boater heading out into Algoa Bay, an angler launching from St Francis Bay, or a commercial operator working out of PE Harbour — Commercial Marine has the boating equipment and accessories you need, all in stock across three convenient Eastern Cape branches from navigation electronics and anchoring systems to fishing tackle, vessel maintenance products, and safety gear — we’ve built our boating range around what Eastern Cape boaters actually use on the water.

Navigation, Electronics & Communication

Chartplotters · Fish finders · Radios · Switch panels

The right electronics keep you safe, on course, and on the fish. We stock leading brands in chartplotters, fish finders, and marine communication — plus switch panels and antennas to complete your vessel’s electrical setup.

Anchors, Chain & Rope

Holding power for every bottom type · Multiple sizes in stock

Reliable anchoring is non-negotiable on the Eastern Cape’s varied grounds, from sandy Algoa Bay to rocky inshore reefs. We stock a full anchoring system: anchors, chain in stainless and galvanised,  rope, and parachute sea anchors for drift control during jigging and longlining operations.

Rods, Reels, Tackle & Lures

Trolling · Bottom · Popping · Jigging · All species

A comprehensive boat fishing range covering every style fished off the Eastern Cape coast. Trolling rods for pelagic species, heavy bottom rods for reef fishing, popping and jigging setups for the action angler, matched with the right reels, terminal tackle, lures, bait, and gaffs to complete the setup.

 

Deck Hardware & Boat Accessories

Rod holders · Grab rails · Hatches · Cooler boxes

Quality deck accessories and boat fittings to kit out your vessel properly. Stainless steel rod holders and grab rails, deck hatches and inspection hatches, cooler boxes to keep your catch and refreshments cold, and clothing suited to a day on the water.

Marine Safety Equipment

Marine Maintenance

SAMSA-compliant safety equipment for all vessel classes. South African maritime law requires specific safety gear on board, our staff can walk you through the requirements for your vessel type and operating area. Don’t head out without the right kit on board.

Boat Maintenance, Adhesives & Fluids

Sea Anchors · Drift Control

Keep your vessel seaworthy and in top condition. We stock the adhesives, sealants, resins, fluids, and maintenance products trusted by Eastern Cape boaters and marine professionals — including the industry-standard Bostik Simson MSR and Sikaflex for structural bonding and sealing.

Steering, Propellers & Trailer Equipment

Control cables · Propellers · Trailer winches

The mechanical essentials that keep your vessel moving and steerable. Steering and control cables, propellers for outboard and inboard applications, and trailer winches to make launching and recovery straightforward — even solo.

Don't leave shore without sunscreen

The Eastern Cape sun is relentless – on the water it’s even more intense, with UV reflecting off the surface from every angle. Whether you’re surf fishing, out on a ski-boat or camping on the coast, proper sun protection isn’t optional. We stock a range of high-SPF sunscreens suited to the active outdoor and marine lifestyle.

SPF 30, 50 and 50+ options for extended time outdoors. The higher the SPF, the longer your protection on the water.

Formulas that stay on through sweat, spray and swimming – essential for anglers and boaters who can’t reapply every hour.

Lightweight sprays and lotions that won’t leave residue on your rods, reels or stainless steel fittings.

Adult and kids’ formulas in stock. Keep the whole crew protected from launch to landing.

Pro tip from our team: Apply 20 minutes before you head out, reapply every two hours – and don’t forget your ears, the back of your neck and your hands. Those are the spots anglers always miss.

Stainless Steel Hardware for Your Vessel

From deck cleats and grab rails to wire rope, chain, shackles and fasteners — our stainless steel department stocks everything needed to rig, fit out, and maintain your boat. Marine-grade 316, competitively priced as direct importers.
