If you’re seeking a reliable co-skipper that can deliver to the targets all watch long, without any relief, you’re in luck because modern autopilots are faster and more reliable than even the best professional hand on the helm.
North Sails goes all in with its new foul weather range, delivering what should be top-of-the line gear that’s built to last.
It’s always cool when a sailboat hardware company can be nimble—recognizing a need, quickly tooling up and starting production, all within a few months. Case in point is Harken’s new 13mm ball-bearing car, which became available this past April.
New through-deck attachment systems engineered for a variety of hookups.
In this web series of technical articles highlighting some of the major controls generic to most keelboats, we’ll use the 5.5 Metre as a platform to explore various key controls, what they do, and how and why they’re set up as they are.
Visually, they may look about the same, but there have been some cool changes at hand in the Gill line of performance sailing gloves. We got a chance to check out three of their top sellers—the championship, pro and helmsman gloves, all in long-fingered models. Here’s what we found.
One outing with a new electric outboard is enough to drive home the understated benefits of having of a lightweight, simple and efficient motor onboard. Just in case.
We recently got to check out three new products from Gill—the Navigator’s Jacket, the Waterproof Beanie and the Millbrook Zip Tee, and when combined, we were feeling warm and fast.
As the most ubiquitous piece of sailing gear (aside from a PFD, of course), the sailing glove of today is a highly designed and engineered thing of beauty. Here’s a look at the latest reviews and offerings in rope-holding and palm protection.
There are skiff suits, and then there are skiff suits. Gill Marine’s new cold-weather FireCell Skiff Suit and FireCell top are in the latter category, as they’re well beyond basic neoprene kit.
In a press release issued today, SAP SE and partner Sailing Yacht Research Foundation announce the launch of Sail Insight, a new mobile app designed for the global sailing community.
We learn at a young age the dangers of playing with fire, and pyrotechnic safety flares certainly fall into the category, especially if used improperly. A new, safer alternative released from ACR Electronics—the ResQFlare—is now available with a one-time purchase of the new high intensity LED electronic distress flare and accompanying daytime flag.
