Finding the right gift for the boater in your life isn’t always easy. Boats are personal. Gear is personal. And serious boaters only keep the equipment they trust; products that work every time, no matter the conditions or day ahead.
Whether its fishing, cruising with the family, or dialing in their helm for the upcoming season, the right equipment becomes part of every day on the water. This year, we put together a curated list of four top-selling Burnewiin essentials, proven, rugged yet refined, and made to elevate any boat. These are gifts that will get used, year after year.
And if a new boat is on the horizon, we’ve included a section highlighting boat brands now offering Burnewiin-equipped models available straight from the factory.
1. CB3220 Cutting Table – The Gift They’ll Use Every Trip
A cutting table can quickly turn into one of the most-used pieces of gear on any boat, and the Burnewiin CB3230 is in a class of its own. Small but mighty, this single leg base table provides a solid, easy-clean work surface for prepping bait, filleting a quick catch, or serving up snacks during a family cruise.
Paired with any Burnewiin mount, it locks in securely, no wobble, no compromise. For anglers, this is the kind of upgrade that instantly improves the workflow on the deck. For cruisers, it brings versatility to any rail, transom or gunwale.
Best for: every boater! Anglers, salmon and tuna fishermen, weekend cruisers who love a clean, durable work surface. Pair with a KN3610 fillet knife or BQ6600 barbeque adapter for the ultimate set-up.
2. GM650 Stainless Mount – The Foundation of a Better Boat Layout
If you’ve spent time on boats, you know that layout matters. Where you place your rod holders, tables, and accessories can make the difference between a smooth day and a cluttered one. But what if you had a mount that could interchange them all?
That’s why the GM650 Stainless Mount is one of our most gifted—and most transformative—pieces of hardware. Made from precision-machined 316 stainless steel, it’s the anchor point for Burnewiin’s entire Quick-Switch ecosystem. One mount unlocks dozens of tools and accessories: rod holders, tables, downrigger adapters, fender cleats, and more.
The GM650 is the perfect “entry point” that sets up the rest of their rig.
Best for: anyone upgrading their boat layout; new Burnewiin users; anglers and cruisers wanting versatility on their platform.
Also consider the GM400 composite gunwale mount, our vertical GM300 and GM500 mounts and rail kits for more mounting configurations.
3. RH6650 Rod Holder – Built for Serious Anglers
The RH6650 Rod Holder is designed for people who fish hard and expect their gear to hold up to big days and big fish. With rotational indexing every 22.5 degrees and smooth vertical adjustment, and a trigger actuated release, it keeps rods locked in exactly where anglers need them—trolling, mooching, jigging.
It pairs perfectly with any Burnewiin mount and is backed by the same marine-grade construction Burnewiin is known for. If the boater in your life spends more time chasing fish than sitting still, this is the upgrade they’ll appreciate.
Best for: salmon trollers, tuna chasers, Great Lakes anglers, and anyone who appreciates rock-solid rod control.
4. KN3610 Fillet Knife – A Trusted Tool for Every Boat
Some gifts are just timeless. A good knife is one of them.
The Burnewiin KN3610 Fillet Knife is crafted for precision and durability with a comfortable, secure grip and a blade that stays sharp even through heavy use. Whether they’re filleting a limit of salmon, trimming up tuna loins, or cutting bait, or using it for afternoon food prep, this knife is the kind of tool that becomes a go-to on every trip.
Pair it with any Burnewiin mount and you've given them a complete knife system they’ll use for years.
Best for: anglers, grill masters, anyone who appreciates a reliable cutting tool onboard.
Thinking Bigger? A New Boat Already Equipped with Burnewiin
If your holiday list includes something more substantial—like a new boat—there’s good news: more boat manufacturers than ever before are integrating the Burnewiin system directly at the factory.
These OEM partners are building boats ready for fishing, adventure, and family cruising with Burnewiin hardware already installed:
Buying a Burnewiin-equipped boat means the layout is already optimized. Rod holders fit perfectly. Cutting tables lock in securely. Downriggers mount cleanly. Accessories swap out in seconds. No improvising, no drilling holes later, no clutter.
It’s a complete system from day one—designed to evolve with the way you use your boat.
Boaters appreciate gear that makes their time on the water smoother, safer, and more enjoyable. Quality matters. Versatility matters. And Burnewiin products are built to last through years of salt, sun, and hard use.
Whether you’re gifting a premium accessory or shopping for a brand-new boat equipped with Burnewiin mounts, these choices are guaranteed to make an impact far beyond the gift-giving season.
