Need Gift Ideas - What's Your Favorite Boat Accessory?

We have a 2009 19' center console bay boat that's been in the shop for a few months. It should be ready soon and my husband is itching to get it back. Our anniversary is coming up and I'd like to get him something cool and useful for the boat. What's your favorite boat accessory? (Max budget of $500.) We live on the North Shore so we're usually on the Tchefuncte or Lake Pontchartrain if that helps.

Stereo head unit with Bluetooth is nice.

A yeti hopper to put beer in.

This is high on my list of next accessory to add.

my favorite is beer, but after that, does it have a depth finder on it?
i think a depth finder with navigation is a great accessary for any boat. the basic decent quality ones start around $300 so im sure he would love it

I've been eyeing some of these self-inflating life jackets.
They stay thin unless they're in the water, then they auto inflate.
They look light and comfy enough that I'd probably keep it on the whole time I'm in the boat.
Also, my favorite gift has been a portable bluetooth speaker. If you get a good one, you'll still be able to hear it while the boat is running. I prefer the portable because it's not hard wired into the boat. We bring it to the beach, etc. often.

Does the boat have a Bimini Top? I just bought one for our boat. Wife loves it and they are on sale @ Empire Covers for around $250.

Second the Bluetooth speaker (a good one).
Lithium Bubba blade knife if he's fishing a good bit.
Maybe an onboard charger if he doesn't have one already.

Turtlebox bluetooth speaker.

That JLB tube speaker thing that was posted is a really great gift for someone who likes music. One of my friends has one and its awesome. Itll get super loud. I really like the built in sound system in my boat but I like to stray away from gifts which require work to install and holes to be cut and stuff like that.
If he isn't a music guy, maybe a new curado reel, or a new set of tackle bags, or a new prop if he doesn't have a stainless steel one already

Ego S2 slider is the best net ever. You can get some pretty nice attachments like the boat hook and gaf that come in super handy.

My raptor shallow water anchor is the best money outside of bob’s hydraulic Jackplate that I have ever spent for a boat.
Can’t believe I ever lived without either
All of that said, get the speaker as neither of the first two are really viable to give as a gift
