GILL: High Performance Race Gear Collection

The ultimate performance racing range, the Gill Race Collection has been designed, tested and race proven for use in warmer conditions where weight, performance and protection can be the key to success. The Race Collection is the end result of 14 months of research and development with input from Terry Hutchinson and Team Quantum (TP52) and sailors from Barking Mad (Farr 40) and Team Aqua.

Each piece of the new collection was tested and proven under race conditions in Mediterranean, USA and Caribbean – Audi Medcup, Rolex Farr 40 Championship, Key West, Miami and congressional Cup. The end result of the program achieved Gill's objective - to design, develop, build and test the best, most innovative, highest performing, collection of performance day gear ever.

Here are the results of testing:

• The Gill Race Collection jacket is the lightest performance sailing jacket on the market.
• The waterproofs are highly breathable, incredibly flexible and as light as is possible with current technology.
• The Collection covers most of the protective needs of the sailor, from fast drying wicking, tops with high UV protection, to warm stretchy soft shell, mid or outer layer all the way through to full waterproofs. The collection is visually coordinated to give a professional, sporty look across the boat, regardless of which pieces each member of the team is wearing.
