Skipper set – skipper case

On board ships and boats, you always have to make the most of the available space. Above all, this means deciding what to take on board and what not. The principle is:

As much as necessary and as little as possible

The art lies in assessing as accurately as possible what is necessary. If you try to think of every possible emergency, there won't be enough space for the on-board first aid kit, the on-board tools, the emergency equipment and so on. The goal is to have the most important things to hand, in a space-saving way, when they are needed.

Our skipper case is put together according to exactly these principles.

What do you need on board a pleasure boat?

In the long run, water – and salt water in particular – is the "enemy" of many materials. That's why highly effective rust protection is a must on every boat. When it's too late, you also need something to remove rust from the surface. You need waterproofing agent and a universal lubricant.

Spray oils are not always suitable on board ships and boats

As you usually only want to dose tiny amounts or single drops on board a boat, spray oils are not recommended. If you constantly use aerosol cans with very little pressure to release just single small drops, the pressure runs out faster than the oil. We have discussed this with many sailors and pleasure boat owners. So always use a liquid product, ideally with our precision oiler. With similar-looking but cheaper oil pens, always bear in mind that only this high-end precision oil pen is suitable for alkaline products and the rough, salty sea air.

The skipper case comes with the following contents:

• Precision oil pen for dosing single drops of oil
• Mini stainless steel funnel for filling the oil pen cleanly
• Waterproofing spray with proven long-term effect
• 50 ml Ballistol Universal Oil
• Large Ballistol care pen
• 100 ml Gunex Mil CLP rust protection oil
• Tropical-strength insect repellent
• 3 x Applicator Pro – better than any brush
• Ballistol baseball cap
• Disposable gloves
• Ballistol Story as a bound booklet
• Sturdy case

Notes on the products in the skipper set

Precision oil pen for dosing single drops of oil

The precision oil pen is made of solid aluminium with a mechanism of high-quality materials that can also handle alkaline oils and other products. With this precision oil pen, not a drop goes astray and the areas surrounding the part to be oiled don't get messed up unnecessarily.

Included in the skipper set: one precision oil pen.

Mini stainless steel funnel for filling the oil pen cleanly

The mini stainless steel funnel fits our precision oil pen exactly and allows you to fill the 5 ml tank cleanly anywhere.

Included in the skipper set: one mini stainless steel funnel.

Waterproofing with proven long-term effect

You need waterproofing agent on board a boat just as much as at the campsite or in a mountain hut. Unfortunately, many waterproofing products don't deliver what they promise. You can see that our waterproofing agent is different in this impressive short video.


Included in the skipper set: waterproofing spray.

Ballistol Universal Oil

As is well known, Ballistol Universal Oil is suitable for more than 1000 uses and has excellent properties for care, lubrication and cleaning. You can find out more in the Ballistol Story, for example.

Skipper Robert Reichmann recommends Ballistol on board ships.
With well over 30 years of sailing experience, skipper Reichmann is now well known in the sailing community and a sought-after skipper on all routes of the world's oceans. Robert Reichmann wrote to us, for example: … Dear Ballistol Shop team, as a sailor I'm mostly on long passages, and Ballistol has, for example, saved my small outboard motor and freed a seized block in the mast... on a sailing boat alone I could give twenty recommendations for using Ballistol. Ballistol is a miracle weapon on board. On a boat there are hundreds of things that really only need one drop, especially the blocks. That means the spray can should only deliver one or two drops, and that uses up too much propellant with aerosol cans. Maybe you could develop a hand pump bottle that doesn't rust.

Greetings from the south-west Caribbean, Robert.

Both problems have already been solved. Thanks to its special pump mechanism, the hand sprayer can atomize liquid and fairly viscous Ballistol. For Robert's request to dose just a single drop of oil on boats, we developed the precision oiler for Ballistol. Unlike all other, sometimes very similar-looking oil pens, only the Ballistol precision oil pen can handle alkaline oils such as Ballistol. In cheap oil pens, inferior materials are attacked by Ballistol's cleaning power, which can lead to clumping, for example.

Many sailors also use Ballistol, for example, to make the narrow luff groove, into which the luff and foot of the mainsail are threaded, more slippery. A few drops are enough, and the sail slides up the mast like a dream. And at the end of the trip, when folding the sail, there are no greasy residues to worry about.

Included in the skipper set: Ballistol liquid 50 ml bottle + 30 ml in the universal care pen.

Gunex Mil CLP rust protection oil

One of the most important liquid tools on board any boat is effective rust protection. Use this professional rust protection on board wherever you need long-term corrosion protection, or for example when laying up rust-prone parts or the whole boat for winter.

Gunex CLP oil provides perfect corrosion protection in all climate zones, including the tropics and near salt water. With Gunex Mil, everything stays protected against rust for a long time, even in wet weather.

Thanks to its surface tension, Gunex Mil is a so-called penetrating oil that creeps into the tiniest fissures by itself. It creeps under moisture and never sticks or gums up.

Included in the skipper set: 100 ml Gunex Mil CLP oil.

Tropical-strength insect repellent

The skipper is almost always where insects feel most at home. Insect bites are not only annoying, they are also dangerous in many cases. Even at home, ticks, for example, are now a year-round problem – apart from very short periods in winters with very low sub-zero temperatures. An effective insect repellent must therefore always be available on board. As boats often travel to different regions or even climate zones, it is important for crew and passengers that the active ingredient is effective in all climate zones. This is the case with Stichfrei, our tropical-strength insect repellent. Even ticks can no longer recognise people treated with Stichfrei as a "source of blood".

Included in the skipper set: 100 ml Stichfrei insect repellent spray.

Use insect repellents safely. Before use always read the label and product information.

Applicator Pro – better than any brush

The perfect applicator for applying oils, solvents, bluing etc. ensures perfect results. The professional applicator is soft yet doesn't shed hairs. It is resistant to all chemicals and can therefore be used for bluing, aggressive solvents and all our oils. The applicator ensures safe and even distribution of the liquid. Unlike brushes or sponges, the applicator reduces the risk of unwanted drops of chemical or oil landing on the workpiece, because the Applicator Pro holds the liquid until it touches the material and then releases it evenly.

Included in the skipper set: 3 x Applicator Pro.

Ballistol baseball cap

The Ballistol baseball cap is made of high-quality material. The logo is elaborately embroidered, not printed. The sturdy peak protects against sunlight and glare.

Included in the skipper set: one Ballistol baseball cap.

Disposable gloves

You don't always want to get your fingers dirty on board or come into contact with certain chemicals, waste, residues etc. Even when you're out on a "clean" Sunday sail with friends and a few small dirty jobs need doing after all, disposable gloves are very welcome.

Included in the skipper set: 10 disposable gloves, size L.

Ballistol Story as a bound booklet

The Ballistol Story is a real treasure trove of more than 120 years of experience with Ballistol. Many customer reports, including historical ones, and tips and tricks on the more than 1000 uses of Ballistol make the Ballistol Story well worth reading – and not just for skippers.

Included in the skipper set: Ballistol Story as a bound booklet.

Sturdy case

The skipper set comes in a sturdy, lockable box which, in addition to the supplied contents, can be filled with other items you need, such as tools or disinfectant. The dimensions are L x W x H: 33 x 27 x 7 cm.

Included in the skipper set: one lockable, sturdy case.
