    We will be visiting a friend in the NE USA in two weeks. He recently bought a beautiful 45-55' cruiser. I don't know the model.
    We want to get a nice gift - coffee table book, something for his boat - need ideas.
    BTW - he can buy what he wants & probably already has several gadgets.

    A "Leatherman" multi-tool/knife. About $100 - $150 c/w leather holster, get his name engraved and date/name of boat. I've got the "Pulse" model, a perfect size & utility, IMO....except no corkscrew!

    Spa robes with the yacht name embroidered. I get them from Boca Terry as gifts for my new buyers (2 for each stateroom). Boca Terry supplies 5 star hotels as well as megayachts; great selections and their customer service is great.
