Why Switch On Your Boat
Six Reasons To Go Plant-Based At Sea
Your Drain Goes Straight To The Ocean
Unlike at home, there's no treatment plant between your shower and the sea. Whatever you wash with ends up in the water you're floating on.
Harsh Chemicals Damage Marine Systems
Conventional products corrode holding tanks, degrade hoses, and kill the bacteria your marine toilet needs to function properly.
Your Skin Already Cops Enough
Salt, wind, and UV all day — then you add chemical-laden body wash on top? Plant-based formulas nourish and restore instead of stripping.
Plant-Based Works Just As Well
Actually better. Our formulas clean effectively without the synthetic fragrances, sulphates, or petrochemicals that cause problems on boats.
Looks Beautiful On Board
You've upgraded everything else on your boat. Upgrade your bathroom too. Real World bottles look as good as they perform.
NZ Made, Supporting Local
Made in our own factory in Hastings, Hawke's Bay. Real people making real products — not mass-produced overseas.
From Nicola, Founder
We Made These For People Who Actually Care About What Goes Down The Drain
I grew up around boats. And I always found it strange that people who love the ocean would use products full of chemicals that end up straight back in it.
When we started Real World, we wanted to make products that work beautifully — but also products you'd feel good about using on a boat, knowing your greywater goes directly into the harbour or the bay.
Every formula is plant-based, safe for marine plumbing and holding tanks, and gentle enough for skin that's already dealing with salt and sun all day. No nasties. No compromise.
