Henri Lloyd for the cruising/coastal sailor
Another new line from Henri Lloyd, the TP2 Ventura Jacket and Coastal Hi-Fit trousers from their Coastal & Inshore Range, have been developed for the cruising/coastal sailor looking for comfort and durability.

friday1.jpg Manufactured using highly breathable and 100% waterproof/windproof TP2 fabric, the TP2 Ventura Jacket incorporates many of Henri Lloyd’s special features including an OPTIVISION Hi-Vis foldaway, streamlined hood that offers unrivalled peripheral vision. The extra high collar system with its shaped, fleece lining also incorporates a fully adjustable storm shield, which significantly reduces water ingress. With a focus on safety and high visibility, the Ventura has pre-moulded reflective patches on the shoulders, chest storm flap, and hood.

The ladies version has a drop seat with an inconspicuous zip opening. The all-important cruising sailors’ chest hand warmer pockets are also zipped and have a Rentex mesh lining.

Cruising adventurer, Tom Cunliffe says having the right kit when cruising around the coast is imperative: “Henri Lloyd have done a seamanlike job developing their Coastal Inshore range. I particularly enjoy the innovative hood and collar arrangement they’ve come up with to keep the warmth in and the wet out when the weather turns mean.”
