Your chance to give your Dad a Spring tweak with the help of Zhik

Give your Dad a taste of what feels like to be a top sailor - kit him out with a piece or two of Zhik this Father's Day © Volvo Ocean Race

With Father's Day looming for this Sunday, September 2 isn't it time you got your Dad looking smart, young, and vibrant?

No we're not suggesting that you give him a voucher for plastic surgery - all you need to do to maintain your family position as #1 son/daughter is go online with Zhik and get him one (or more) of their great apparel offerings or sailing accessories - like gear bags (you can never have too many of those), hats, sailing gloves and much more.

Your Dad might not be a Round the World sailor, in the Olympic squad, or on the short list for the nearest AC75 campaign - but that doesn't mean he can't wear and experience the best and latest in Zhik sailing apparel.

And if your Dad has passed on, like mine, then shout yourself something you'd really like in his memory!

PS: Of course you are not just getting him something for Father's Day - Christmas is just around the corner. And, then he's probably got a birthday which he'd rather forget - but which can make memorable with Zhik's help. Plus of course you never have to worry about what to buy for the man who has everything - or thinks he has!
