NEW GEAR
The latest products, from waterproof jackets to wind sensors and VHF radios
Zhik’s new Aroshell jacket and smock are lightweight, breathable and designed for inshore and coastal yachting. Aroshell is a lightweight threelayer construction fabric – a tough, water-resistant outer, a breathable membrane and breathable mesh liner are laminated to one layer, and claim to be two times more ‘waterproof durable’ than current breathable ocean fabrics. The smock can accept Zhik’s DAME award-winning hood range. Salopettes are also available. The smock is £239 and hoods range from
£65-£139. www.zhik.com
