New Hobart range from Gul

by Katie Drummond-Dunn 27 Oct 2006 11:33 BST

Gul’s most Advanced Marine Apparel to date

London Boat Show 2007 sees the launch of Gul International’s new Hobart Offshore racing system. The Hobart range combines innovative features with cutting edge performance weight fabrics to make this range Gul’s most technologically advanced sailing apparel to date.

The Hobart range incorporates the new waterproof and breathable GCX3 EVO and Cordura tri-laminate fabrics that have been developed specifically for Gul. These provide immense protection against the elements out at sea, whilst reducing the volume and weight of the garments; which allows the wearer greater flexibility and freedom of movement.

The Hobart range consists of a jacket, smock, Hi-chest trousers and salopettes. The system has been developed with the dedicated big boat sailor in mind and offers the highest level of protection on the water. The ergonomic cut and revolutionary fabric help make the Hobart range ideal for high performance sailing.

The Hobart range will be on display at the Gul stand, number N316, at the London Boat Show between January the 5th and the 14th 2007. Other Gul Marine stockists at the show include; Purple Marine N250, Pinnell and Bax N370 and Mailspeed Marine N356 & N390.
