W hen we got a call from Grant Dalton to ask if we were interested in working with CAMPER and Emirates Team New Zealand in their 2011-12 Volvo Ocean Race campaign we jumped at the chance. Musto worked with Dalts on the Flyer campaign in 1981-82 when he was the sail maker on board, and since on Fisher & Paykel (1989-90), Merit Cup (1997-98) and Club Med (2000). Each time, we took feedback from Dalts and the crew, combined it with innovative design and materials to create better products – products which found their way into our technical sailing collection the following year.

FABRICTECHNOLOGY What is GORE-TEX® Fabric? GORE-TEX® fabrics are created by bonding a 100% waterproof GORE-TEX® membrane between high performance textiles which provide high levels of breathable and waterproof protection. Moisture vapour escapes Rain and wind stay out Outer material The GORE-TEX® membrane is the heart of all GORE-TEX membrane GORE-TEX products. It is completely wind and waterproof, but permeable for water vapour. The result: Water from the outside will never penetrate, cold winds cannot pass through and perspiration can escape easily. This is why your body always stays dry and...

FABRICTECHNOLOGY BR2 BR2 waterproof fabric is an innovative 2 layer nylon microporous coated fabric with a polyester mesh lining. The fabric breathes by allowing moisture from the warm high humidity zone around the body escape through microscopic holes which are too small for water to penetrate. The fabric is also treated with a dWR finish (durable Water Repellent) forcing water to bead and run off. BR1 BR1 fabrics have a durable hydrophilic coating which ‘breathes’ by absorbing moisture from the warm high humidity zone and chemically driving it outwards and away from the body. The fabric is...
