Just thought I'd update this.  After much messing around on my behalf I finally got a Crewsaver Moko top thanks to olly-love's suggestion.
Used it on Sunday in 16 knots of reasonably lumpy sea wearing a thin polyester top underneath the Moko and I was lovely and toasty.  Thin and close fitting so you can use it as either a top or mid-layer.  May also get the pants to go under my hikers for when it gets colder.

Zhik kit always look good I bought a pair of there boots the ones with the elastic laces up the side they lasted half a season before both tows came through and the soles went ultra thin so no more Zhik for me. Love my Rooster Aqua fleece had it about 4 years and would recommend it as I have at my club now most people where them.

Saw a picture of Nicolas Sarkozy, not noted for being a spendthrift (at least, not with tax money) on a b'Twin (Decathlon own-brand) bike.


Plus, lets be honest, if it's image that's at stake, only the outer layers need to be "cool".

Isn't the Vatican's sailing club located next to the Holy See?

A very select membership, My Son! Oddly enough, nobody has won the Husband and Wife trophy since the Borgias moved! Some members are very keen on Oppie sailors though.

Not being a logo-whore, squad wannabe or faded windsurfing notable I am perfectly comfortable using stuff that works at a price which doesn't reflect the amount spent on sponsoring half the world. Wink
