2013 will be specialist marine clothing brand Henri Lloyd's third year as the Official Clothing Partner to the race and we are proud and delighted to announce our exciting plans for the weekend.
To celebrate Henri Lloyd's official partnership and commitment to the race, we have bestowed the Henri Lloyd Challenge Trophy to the Island Sailing Club.
The striking trophy, which is a hand-made sail sculpture, presented on a mahogany base, will be awarded to the line honours boat within the ISCRS Class. The winning boat will also receive £400 worth of Henri Lloyd vouchers.
Henri Lloyd will also be selling a commemorative clothing range, featuring the official race logo, exclusively on the Henri Lloyd stand within the Race Village in Cowes Yacht Haven, online at www.henrilloyd.com and at the Henri-Lloyd store in Cowes. The range includes the Henri Lloyd Breaker Jacket & Vest, Rugby Shirt, Fast-Dri Polo (men's & women's) and Fast-Dri cap.
Henri Lloyd Ambassador Sir Ben Ainslie CBE, will be competing in the race onboard his AC45 – J.P.Morgan BAR and will be visiting the Henri Lloyd stand within the Race Village on Saturday 1st June at 5pm, to meet race competitors and sign autographs.
