Allen products put through their paces on boats around the world

The Allen Brothers factory has been in the same place for over 40 years and since then we've been producing cutting edge products to the high standards we, and our customers, demand.
However, just because the factory has remained in the same place, it doesn't mean our products have. We ship products daily all over the world, and have customers in every continent (except Antarctica. When the dinghy sailing scene there starts to take off, we'll sign up a distributor).
Whether on the other side of the world (we were delighted to see the Allen-sponsored Haier Appliances GB 18 foot skiff team finish 10th at the JJ Giltinan trophy last week), or closer to home, we love to see our products on the water. One of our friends and sponsored sailors from just across the channel, Remy Thuillier, sent us this clip of him and his crew Mathieu putting their Allen-fitted 470 through its paces.
They've spent the winter training in San Remo, Italy, and Hyeres, France, and have reported back to us that despite some big breeze, as can be seen in the video, nothing has broken and they are now ready to start their racing season at the Princess Sofia Regatta in Palma de Mallorca, where we wish them the best of luck.
