That's right, helmet and goggles! You might be saying, "Why on earth would I need a helmet on my sailboat? And who wears goggles anymore?" But I can assure you: if you're caught out in a storm where the wind is blowing the rain so hard it feels like needles are stabbing your eyes, and below decks you're being thrown around like a rag doll amidst all the objects you didn't stow properly that are now being thrown around like bowling balls trying to kill you, you're going to want these essential safety items on board.
