Needs List
Capture the thing you are looking for once. Recommended items can be added above; you can also type something specific here.
Choose a saved sailor to keep a Needs List. Free setup recommendations still work above.
THE LOOP
Advice should lead somewhere.
Once something is on the Needs List, the next step is to connect it more deeply to Marketplace alerts — so a parent can say “Charlotte needs this” once and Dinghy Base can surface a suitable listing when one appears.
