If you\u2019re a US reader, you\u2019re likely to already be familiar with trusted outdoor-titan REI.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve combed through their seemingly endless Black Friday deals on watersports gear<\/a> and more so you don\u2019t have to.<\/p>\n

Here are our top picks for deals on the items you\u2019ll want onboard, or on the water.<\/p>\n

Decent discounts on YETI Soft Coolers<\/h2>\n

We\u2019ve called YETI products our best cooler on test<\/a> and the best cooling kit for sailors<\/a>. Our tech editors love them, and the public seems to agree.<\/p>\n

Right now, some models are 19% off from REI in one (actually quite lovely) colour, a pale blue-grey called \u2018Big Sky Blue\u2019.<\/p>\n

While it\u2019s not a mind-blowing price drop, these really are top-quality items, and the extra savings are a good excuse to pick one up if you\u2019ve been eyeing one for boat trips or long beach days.<\/p>\n

These soft-shell options are particularly good to keep on board, as they\u2019re so easily stoweable.<\/p>\n
