International Paint!
Coat Your Boat With International!
Milder temperatures and longer days means that a bit of boat maintenance may be high on the agenda for some; If this is you then why not give your boat a new lick of paint and a new lease of life with P&B's selection of International Paint. We have paints for all purposes from the Micron2 for anti-fouling, Toplac for topsides and Perfection Plus for varnishing.


 
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!

For only the second time this year P&B's Dave Wade along with new crew Ben Raynor sailed the Merlin Rocket. Ahead of a busy Merlin Rocket season for P&B the aim was to fine tune the boat, improve technique and get good boat speed. For these reasons Dave's 'Kit of the Week' is the Twin Spinno Pole Launcher. Designed to make gybing effortless, this pole system is fast becoming a 'must have' for many sailors across different classes. Dave and Ben were happy with their set up and put in plenty of smooth Gybes whilst also testing a development Merlin Spinnaker.
