  • The Hammock That Outsleeps Your Kids $31.99
  • The Backyard Obstacle Course… for Boats. We string this up between palm trees, dock posts, or even between our dinghy davits (no joke), makes us look like “those cool outdoorsy parents” on Instagram. $93.99
  • The “Micah to Dad, Over” Toy That’s Actually Useful. These aren't just toys. They’re independence-builders and chaos-reducers. It buys you 20+ minutes of solo coffee time. $25.99
  • Screen-Free Sanity for Rainy Days, Long Passages, and Solo Galley Time. This little cube is a lifesaver on a sailboat. No WiFi? No problem. Our boys use it daily—while we cook, fix the watermaker, or hide in the head for 3 minutes of quiet. $159.99
  • The Life Jacket That Lets You Breathe Easy. Coast Guard approved, toddler-tested, and boat-parent approved. This is our go-to life jacket for dock tantrums and dinghy rides that turn into ocean expeditions. $59.99
  • This Tiny Tool Has Saved My A$$ More Than Once” 4-in-1 Sailor’s Multitool – Rustproof, Boat-Tested, Dad-Approved $16.95
  • The Diaper Bag Poseidon Would Carry. Waterproof, wipeable, and somehow still full of crumbs. It’s seen more adventure (and spilled juice) than most hikers. $59.99
  • Boat Lantern or UFO? You Decide. Charges with sun. Floats. Lights up night potty breaks, cockpit beers, and toddler shadow puppets. Jayce once tried to launch it into space. $29.95
  • The Only Jacket That’s Seen More Spit-Up Than Storms. Windproof, waterproof, and dadproof. Keeps me dry when Jayce dumps his water cup and when the Atlantic throws a tantrum. $260
  • My Pocket-Sized Production Studio. Shoots 4K chaos, edits dad hacks, survives snack attacks from a 2-year-old. This is the brain behind 90% of my content. $699.99
  • The Command Center for Stay-at-Home Chaos. It’s where I plan Reels, answer emails with one hand, and Google “why is my toddler sticky?” with the other. $999
  • The DadPod: Because Toddlers Don’t Hold Still. This is the tripod I use for filming chaos solo — sturdy, compact, and toddler trip-proof (mostly). $24.99
  • The Mic Drop Mic. I use these to record chaos without sounding like I live in it. $49.90
