And yet again I’ll +1 to Dennis’ recommendations. I’m sitting here in my shed looking at the second set of Patagonia foul-weather gear that I purchased way back in the early 80’s. For it’s day it was pretty good stuff. FWIW, I met Yvonne Chouinard while he was still hammering out pitons... I

Adam: In the Spring and Autumn sailing season(s) here in Nova Scotia, offshore sailing gear is my preference. During the Summer, I use simple 'splash rain gear', however, I have a bimini and that makes a huge difference. For me the price point is probably more important than the brand name

All the majors make similar decent foulies. They all fall apart after several years left on a boat in hot weather. My opinions: I have two conflicting opinions. Opinion 1: If you are going to take them off the boat after each use, then don't buy LESS than you need. That is, if you are

I'm happy with my Helly Hansen gear. I sail all year round, and in the ocean. The jacket is fleece lined and you can buy a separate fleece sweater that zips in for additional warmth. You can also use the fleece sweater by itself. I've had this outfit for more than ten years. Alan Bergen 35 Mk
