Based on what is available, the focus is more on the experience of sailing than on a specific “buy this exact gear” list. In the Pacific crossing video and posts, the essentials that consistently show up are:

  1. Reliable foul‑weather clothing (staying dry and warm on night watches)
  2. Good sun protection (hat, sunglasses, long sleeves, reef‑safe sunscreen)
  3. Simple but solid camera setup for documenting (action cam + small mirrorless/phone)
  4. Dry bags and waterproof cases for electronics
  5. Comfortable barefoot-friendly shoes or sandals for deck work

If you tell more about your boat (cruising cat vs small monohull, coastal vs ocean), a more tailored gear list can be suggested.
