Kit Of The Week!
KIT of the WEEK!
Each week one of the P&B team will be looking into their kit bag and giving us an item that they simply wouldn't sail without!

This week we go to P&B's birthday boy and youngest member of the team, Ben Eaves. When not taking orders or offering product advice in store Ben can often be found sailing anything from a Laser, Streaker, Solution or Merlin Rocket. After teaming up with P&B's Tom Lonsdale for the recent Merlin Rocket Inlands, Bens 'Kit of the Week' is the Musto BR1 dinghy Smock. Offering great comfort and fit as well as keeping the body 'bone dry' the BR1 Dinghy Smock is a lightweight durable top which is perfect for any dinghy or keelboat racer!
