Although the weather has been far from great (a few gusts over 50 knots recording around the country), we hope that everyone's been having a great time out on the water. We all experienced a few slippery moments in the lively conditions so we have added five items to our offers section, all to help when it comes to grip on your boat!
The P&B team recommend: the Zhik Grip II Dinghy Boot and toe straps, Zhik Grip Gloves 205.
for your boat Pro Grip, Grip Tape, International Interdeck Paint products that make a difference on those wet and stormy sailing events.
