MUSTO TECHNICAL
SAILING COLLECTION 2013
It’s going to be hard to top 2012 in terms of sport and sailing at its best; the Volvo Ocean Race certainly kept us enthralled as we watched
the excitement unfold and the leaders get ahead. At Musto, we were privileged to partner the CAMPER with Emirates Team New Zealand
entry And play our part in getting them onto the podium. We worked with the sailors to improve our kit and kept in close contact to note
how the kit performed. This is how we created our toughest range, the HPX Pro Series – learn about it on page 10.
Another proud moment for Musto was watching Team GB’s success in Weymouth; Musto began working with the British Sailing Team
in the Olympic and Paralympic classes in 2008 with a strict brief; to create sportswear that would regulate their body temperature
and allow an immense freedom of movement so the athlete’s performance is not hindered. A close development programme ensued
with rigorous on the water testing. The 2012 result; 2
golds, 3 silvers & 1 bronze!

TAMING THE OCEANS
So, what’s next? The 2012/13 Vendée Globe Race, the
‘Everest of sailing’, is a pure test of individual endurance
where solo sailors set off to become the fastest person
to sail non-stop around the globe. This is where reliable
kit is essential to the survival of the sailor whether it’s
tackling extreme conditions in the Roaring Forties or
sweltering in the doldrums. We are pleased to see that
over two-thirds of the entries have chosen to take Musto
gear. So who will keep it together and push their limits
to beat the record of 84 days?

TAMING THE
OCEANS
Former Vendée Globe winner Vincent Riou knows that the first
step to winning is to finish, and to finish he, and his boat, need
to be in tip top condition. Gael Pawson found out more…
Vincent Riou isn’t just one of France’s seemingly endless
supply of talented solo ocean racers, he’s one of the biggest
names in the sport. Forty-year-old Vincent Riou was
victorious in the 2004/5 Vendée Globe, having previously been
technical coordinator for Michel Desjoyeaux’s PRB, which won
in 2000/1. It was the closest finish in the history of the race as
Riou crossed the line less than seven hours ahead of secondplaced Jean Le Cam.
In 2008 he returned to defend his title, but it wasn’t to be. Just
off Cape Horn he went to the rescue of his arch-rival in the
previous race, Jean Le Cam, who had lost the bulb off his keel
and capsized. Just a few hours later, disaster struck and his
boat was dismasted – the dismasting was believed to be due
to clipping one of the boat’s outriggers on Le Cam’s upturned
keel. Riou was given redress and awarded joint third place in
the race, but it wasn’t quite the result he had planned.
Undeterred, he soon had a new boat. The fifth PRB was the
first of the new generation IMOCA 60s to be launched after
the 2008-9 Vendée Globe. Vincent and his new boat were soon
busy putting an impressive number of miles under their belts
ahead of the next Vendée, with some good results, including a
win in the Europa Warm Up and third in the 2011 BtoB Transat.
So as the only former winner on the start line of the
2012-13 race, we wondered what it feels like to finish
first in this amazing race? ‘It’s fantastic!’ says Vincent.
‘It is a great moment in a sailor’s life. It is really
unique.’
Preparing the boat
How does Vincent prepare for a race like the Vendée?
‘I try to have the biggest technical preparation I
can. I’m meticulous and I like to work on technical
improvements. My way of thinking is: if the boat isn’t
ready, it is hard to be efficient.’
Vincent’s was the first new boat to be launched, pretty
much straight after the 2008-9 race. ‘I’ve sailed a lot with
the boat.’ He laughs: ‘I think she has sailed once around
the world already! And I’ve trained a lot in solo. PRB is at
the height of her power,’ he adds, which bodes well for
his chances of success in the 2012-13 race.
Preparing the man
It isn’t just his boat that’s important, Vincent’s wellbeing is also paramount: ‘For me a sailor’s equipment
is critical to his success. It is impossible to be efficient
if you don’t have the right clothes at the right time.
During the Vendée Globe, we will meet with different
climates so I need lots of clothes, from t-shirts to a
drysuit!’
Vincent views his sailing kit as a knight heading into
battle would see his armour: ‘Your clothes are your
protection in this unfriendly environment. Musto is the
best for that. I’ve chosen the best improvements.’
of the sailors that take on its immense challenge and, win or lose, they
come back again and again. ‘All my preparation, all my training has been
organised to reach my goal: the Vendée Globe,’ explains Vincent.
What draws him back to the race? The answer is both the competition, and
the race’s unique ability to deliver some amazing experiences: ‘The start
and the arrival is incredible. The Cape Horn and the arrival in the Southern
Seas are also different. There is something special in these moments.’
Most of us can only experience these amazing moments through sailors
like Vincent Riou and with today’s technology, these solo sailors are able
to share film footage, photos and stories with their followers. But we can
experience many of the technological advances and developments that have
come about as a result of the boundaries he and his fellow sailors continue
to push. The results can be seen in the boats we all sail, and the clothing
we all wear as the lessons learned in the most extreme environments and
challenging of conditions help to develop better and better protection for
those who battle with the elements.
Thanks to sailors like Vincent Riou, not only do we get to share some
amazing experiences, we are also warmer and drier than ever before.
It isn’t just the boat designs that have seen huge
technological leaps over the years. New materials and
technologies have seen improvements year on year
and today’s sailing clothing is very different from the
clothing of 30, 20, or even 10 years ago. When Vincent
started sailing things were very different: ‘The suits
weren’t breathable…. we were dripping… we were wet
and we didn’t know the reason, was it sea water or
perspiration?’
Today, the equipment allows sailors to sail at their best
in all conditions.
‘The fact that the suits are now breathable and
waterproof, and the latex cuffs keep out the water,
means we are always dry. The most important thing is
to be warm and dry,’ says Vincent.
Winning ingredients
So, apart from a great boat and top-level clothing,
what does it take to win the Vendée Globe Race? ‘You
need to be brilliant in different fields. The winner is
not the one who is the best in only one field. Our sport
needs lots of qualities, you really need to be skilful.’
It seems that when it come to winning the Vendée
Globe, once isn’t enough. This race gets into the blood

FABRIC
TECHNOLOGY
Keith Musto first started developing clothing for his own Olympic campaign in 1964. After
winning a silver medal for Great Britain, he returned home to develop sailing clothing
using his intimate understanding of the sport with his technical engineering skills.
Musto have been equipping world class sailors ever since and have built a reputation
on creating quality, innovative, performance-driven clothing to meet sailor’s needs,
even in the most extreme conditions.
Today, MUSTO offer a full range of technical sailing clothing designed specifically to
meet the various requirements of your sailing, your type of boat and the conditions
that you may encounter. Here’s a guide to what you might need…
TECHNICAL CLOTHING CATEGORIES
Engineered using 3-layer GORETEX® Pro product technology
for maximum ruggedness to
withstand extended use in extreme
conditions. The Ocean Technology®
membrane is 3x thicker than the
standard GORE-TEX® membrane
and all components have strict
performance specifications to
ensure optimum strength. GORE™
Micro Grid Backer technology
improves garment comfort and
performance using an innovative
internal backer fabric. This
technology improves internal
abrasion and snag resistance,
enhances garment breathability and
decreases garment weight. It also
allows the garment to slide easily
over mid-layers.
Constructed using 3-layer
GORE-TEX® Pro product technology
for superior breathability, durability
and waterproofness. The
GORE-TEX® membrane is 2x thicker
than the standard
GORE-TEX® membrane and
garments are designed to be the
best protection for prolonged
periods facing foul weather
conditions. MPX Race Garments
feature Stretch GORE-TEX® fabric
panels to offer greater freedom of
movement for high activity racing.
GORE-TEX® Pro garments must
pass Gore’s toughest test conditions
and most aggressive rainstorm test.
Fabricated from a lightweight
3-layer GORE-TEX® for high activity
sailing in warmer conditions.
LPX garments are stripped-out
and lightweight, just like high
performance sailing boats. This
unique 3-layer GORE-TEX® fabric
is exclusive to Musto in the marine
market and offers extreme
breathability, wind and waterproof
protection. These lightweight
garments are the ideal solution for
day sailing, travel, hiking, golf or
other activities where space and
weight are critical. A protective
layer on the inside of the
GORE-TEX® membrane makes a
separate lining unnecessary. The
result: high performance, minimum
weight and pack volume.

WINDSTOPPER®
The WINDSTOPPER® membrane is an ultra thin protective layer which
is laminated to a lightweight textile layer, making it totally windproof.
It is made of the versatile polymer PTFE (polytetrafluorethylene) which
is expanded to create a microporous structure. These micropores are
900 times larger than water vapor molecules, allowing perspiration
to pass through unhindered. This means that the WINDSTOPPER®
membrane adds total windproofness to any textile without perceivably
restricting its initial breathability or weight.
OUTDRY®
An innovative technology to waterproof garments where the standard
manufacturing techniques based on seam-sealed waterproof fabrics
cannot be utilised. The OutDry® patented lamination process is such that
the waterproof/breathable membrane is directly bonded to the external
layer of the garment, perfectly sealing any possible water entry point.
ARCTEC FLEECE
Arctec high loft fleece is a breakthrough in durable, personal
insulation - trusted by our test team to preserve core body
temperature and maintain optimum working muscle temperature,
even in bitter Southern Ocean conditions.
Arctec fleece is soft, lightweight, warm and comfortable. Tiny
air pockets in the super high loft fabric structure retain body heat
whilst the lightweight breathable properties ensure rapid moisture
transfer - keeping you dry, comfortable and warm with minimum
bulk. It is hydrophobic, holding less than 1% of it’s weight in water,
it retains much of its insulating powers - even when wet - and highly
breathable, allowing perspiration to readily pass through the fabric.
These qualities make it ideal for making clothing intended to be used
during extreme physical activity.
D3O® IMPACT PROTECTION
D3O® containing intelligent molecules is flexible and
moves with the wearer yet locks together on impactabsorbing energy & providing superior protection.
D3O® outperforms conventional soft foams of the same
thickness on impact by up to six times.
SCHOELLER®
Hard wearing fabric using Kevlar®, an aramide fibre
which is, gram for gram, five times stronger than steel.
CORDURA®
CORDURA® fabric provides rugged durable
performance for a variety of end uses, including
luggage, footwear and performance apparel. Products
made with CORDURA® fabrics feature enhanced tear
and abrasion resistance, and long -lasting durability
which means a longer garment lifetime. CORDURA®
fabric is constructed with qualifying yarns which are
woven, dyed and finished in accordance with INVISTA’s
approved fabric standards for the CORDUR® brand.
NILIT® BODYFRESH
Smooth, comfortable, high performance antibacterial
yarn which provides increased, freshness through
effective antibacterial action using silver ion technology.
THERMOLITE®
Hollow-core fibre technology provides the most warmth
at the lightest weight. The larger the surface area allows
for faster evaporation by speeding moisture away from
the skin to the surface of the fabric where it can evaporate
more quickly.
COOLMAX®
COOLMAX® fabric is the performance fabric that includes
an effective fiber-based moisture management system. The
system can move perspiration away from the body, and
through the fabric, where it can evaporate quickly, allowing
the wearer the feel cooler and more comfortable.
SUN PROTECTION
A novel weave structure and denier produces sun
protective properties. Fabrics have also been treated
with chemicals effective at absorbing UV light during
the manufacturing process.
INSULATION
WIND RESITANT
Musto insulation fabrics are
engineered to create small air
pockets which trap escaping body
heat and retain warmth.
Musto wind resistant fabrics
will reduce wind chill and
retain body heat.
WINDJAMMER
BREATHABLE
EVOLUTION
Musto windjammer fabrics feature a
membrane or coating which provide
a windproof and breathable barrier
and prevent the loss of body heat.
Breathable evolution fabrics
offer waterproof and breathable
protection against the elements.
FAST DRY
WATERPROOF
Musto fast dry fabrics are designed
to wick away moisture and quickly
return to dry weight.
Musto waterproof products are
seam-taped and offer 100%
waterproof protection.
DWR
THERMO
REGULATION
Musto durable water repellent
treated fabrics are coated with a

silverstars
Luke Patience and Stuart Bithell were
two of the shining lights from the 2012
Olympic Games…
No one can have enjoyed the 2012 Olympic Sailing Regatta
more than 470 silver-medallists Luke Patience and Stuart
Bithell… if there were medals to award for the best winning
celebrations, then theirs would surely have taken gold.
From the first day of racing they were bubbling with
enthusiasm, enjoying every second. Luke’s reaction to the first
day was infectious: ‘Loved it! It was champagne yachting; it
was windy it was wet and it was fast and we love that!’
Both Luke, who has the diminutive frame of a typical 470
helmsman, but with enough personality to fill a football pitch,
and Stuart, the giant crew, who towers above his teammate,
seemed to be wearing massive grins all week!
©Skandia Team GBR
They might know how to have fun but this team is deadly
serious about its racing. They showed they had the measure
of Weymouth, pushing the older, experienced Australian duo,
who were clear favourites for gold, all the way, and very nearly
upsetting the form book.
‘Weymouth’s a tricky venue,’ explains Luke. ‘Sometimes you
find your rhythm and it clunks and it clicks and it feels easy,
but someone in the same race who’s not in their rhythm would
say: “Wow that was a really difficult course today.” There’s
no secrets and there’s no magic, it’s just about finding your
rhythm, getting in a good place and letting that tick over for
the hour-long race.’ They certainly ticked throughout the
event, guaranteeing silver, and then pushing hard for gold in
the medal race. The fact that they couldn’t beat the Australians
didn’t dampen their joy. They had sailed brilliantly, and taken
Olympic silver at their first Games. They were winners.
Stuart explains their approach: ‘We worked really, really hard
up until the Olympics. At the opening ceremony we thought:
“Right we’ve done all we can do, let’s go and have fun… we’re
not gonna to do any better or worse by not having fun!” So we
took that approach and it was an absolute hoot all the way.’
He adds: ‘Myself and Luke are both very cheery characters and
we get along really, really well - and it’s such a huge opportunity
the Olympics, that you’d be mad not to enjoy the experience
and have some fun. Don’t get me wrong, when we’re racing
and we’re doing boatwork we’re serious, but we’re having fun
on the way.’
Not only were they were on good form, but they were also
confident in their preparation. ‘The main thing for me, and for
Luke, was quietening the demons in his head… Knowing that
©Skandia Team GBR
we’d done all the training and we were as best prepared as we could be,’ says Stuart.
‘We spend a lot of time getting sorted getting the boat ready for the Olympics. In 2010
we lost the world championship due to gear failure, so we were pretty adamant that
wasn’t going to happen. The boat was in pristine condition.’ They also knew the venue
inside out.
It might have been their first Olympics, but they didn’t let it overwhelm them: ‘We
thought it would be more nerve-wracking and it would feel different, but the only real
difference is the sail says GBR all over it and there’s a massive clock on the committee
boat counting down…’ says Luke. ‘Racing 470s round a course for an hour putting our
hearts and souls into it… that feels normal.’
Sailing-addicted
You might think Luke and Stuart would be ready for a holiday after the intensity of
the Olympic regatta. Not Stuart, he was straight off to the Merlin Rocket National
Championship, which he won, this time sitting at the back of the boat.
‘I absolutely love sailing and I love helming boats. As I’ve been crewing
mostly in the 470 it was nice for me to do an event with a stick in my hand,
which was really good fun.’
than me - potentially just a wetsuit and maybe a technical rash vest
under that, but not really a drytop, unless it’s really cold!’ In his home
waters of Scotland maybe!
It’s a common theme, even the top professional sailors often can’t keep
away from the water, why is that? ‘It’s a great sport, it’s forever changing,
it’s always very different so it’s actually hard to get bored of it! If you get
bored of Weymouth then go to Palma!’ says Stuart.
Just as Musto’s story started with an Olympic silver medal, so it seems
that Luke and Stuart are headed for more great things. They had barely
reached the shore before announcing their desire to compete in the
2016 Rio Olympic Games. ‘We’ll maybe have a slightly more relaxed six
months and build up from there onwards,’ says Stuart. Whatever they do,
they are sure to be having fun. Gael Pawson
That doesn’t mean there aren’t tough times: ‘It is sometimes tiring in
the winter and you’ve got to get your wet wetsuit on for the sixth day in a
row,’ Stuart acknowledges… which of course is when the right kit is key.
‘Skandia Team GBR is very fortunate to be sponsored by Musto and the
technology and the equipment that as elite sailors we need to be training
in the winter. Certainly for me training in winter, a drysuit keeps me dry
and warm – it makes it a little bit more bearable.’
The future
The kit changes when they are at an event: ‘I try to keep off the drysuits
in racing purely because of the aerodynamics and flexibility. I’ll generally
wear a wetsuit and spray top, or if it’s a bit colder, a MPX dry smock – the
breathable one, which keeps the top half of your body dry. For me that’s
an absolute lifesaver stood out on that wire, standing in the wind doing
nothing!
‘Luke’s slightly different, he’s generally working a lot harder. There
are some conditions in the 470 where I’ll stand on the wire and not do
much really, so I’m a sitting duck for getting cold! But Luke’s a lot more
manoeuvrable and he’s always working the boat, so he’s wearing less

DINGHY
Musto began working with the British Sailing Team in the Olympic and Paralympic classes in 2008
with a strict brief; to create sportswear that would regulate their body temperature and allow
an immense freedom of movement so that the athlete’s performance is not hindered. A close
development programme ensued with great attention to detail and rigorous on the water testing.
Modern technology aside, this brief was much the same as when Keith Musto first began to develop
sailing clothing for his Olympic campaign in 1964.

Defenders
Challengers
The America’s Cup is sailing’s most coveted trophy. Surrounded
by an aura of prestige, magic and glamour, it has inspired the
rich, the famous and the very top sailors throughout its 160year history. Fortunes have been lost trying to win it, legends
made losing it. Heroes and villains, secrecy and intrigue and the
cutting edge of technology are the ingredients that have given it
a status that is second to none.
Where it all started
When the yacht America won a race around the Isle of Wight in
1851 it was the start of the oldest international sporting trophy in
the world – predating even the modern Olympics and the Ashes.
‘There is no second,’ Queen Victoria was told as her aides strained
to see which boat followed the yacht ‘America’ as she crossed the
finish. The ‘100 Guinea Cup’, as it was then known, which had
been put up by Britain’s Royal Yacht Squadron, travelled back
to America with its winner, and there it was set to stay for over
100 years. The trophy was donated to the New York Yacht Club
as ‘a perpetual challenge cup for friendly competition between
nations’… and so the America’s Cup was born.
The forefront of technology
The America’s Cup is perhaps the most difficult sporting trophy
to win. In the more than 160 years since that first race, only
three other nations have won it – Australia, New Zealand and
Switzerland. It truly is a Holy Grail.
Since its origins lie in a match designed for Britain to show
off its superior yacht technology, the boats have pushed the
technological boundaries of their day. Budgets are huge, and no
expense is spared to harness the fastest designs and the best
crew. The America’s Cup is a demanding and expensive challenge,
breaking new ground in yacht design, materials and construction.
But it’s not just the boats themselves that are at the forefront of
technology; the same applies to every element of each challenge,
from weather to nutrition and clothing.
Modern history
Australia was the first nation to take the trophy away from American
waters, when Australia II, featuring a revolutionary keel design,
won in 1983. America won the Cup straight back in 1987, but then in
1995, New Zealand won and became the first non-American team
to successfully defend the Cup in Auckland in 2000.
In 2003, Switzerland’s Alinghi challenged and won, so the Cup
finally returned to Europe. The Swiss, lacking suitable waters of
their own, took the competition to Valencia in Spain, where they
again won. Then a host of legal challenges kept the competition in
the law courts and until the judges ordered a ‘Deed of Gift’ race,
which was run in Valencia in 2010 between just one Challenger and
the Defender. That’s when BMW Oracle won – returning the Cup to
America once again… this time San Francisco.
The format
The America’s Cup
The format for each edition of the America’s Cup (San Francisco
2013 will be the 34th) is agreed between the Cup holder, and the
Challengers. In recent times (apart from the 2010 match) the Cup
format has involved a Challenger Series – the Louis Vuitton Cup
– where all the teams hoping to win the Cup from its holder race
sail one another, first in one-on-one ‘round-robin’ matches to
decide a seeding, then a knock-out series. The cards are stacked in
favour of the Cup holder, known as the Defender, as it simply goes
straight into the final, where they face the winner of the Challenger
Series. For the 2013 America’s Cup the Defender will be Oracle
Team USA, with four Challengers: Artemis Racing (Sweden), Team
Korea (Korea), Luna Rossa (Italy) and Emirates Team New Zealand.
For the 2013 Challenger Series and America’s Cup proper, the
teams step up to larger craft; 72-foot catamarans with solid ‘wing
sails’ that tower some 130 feet off the water. It is the first time
a fleet of multihulls, designed to the same rule has raced in the
event. The windy and waves of San Francisco Bay promise to add
plenty of drama, on a much larger scale than with the smaller 45’s.
The boats will be fast, very fast, and many if not all seem to feature
hydrofoils. These are special foils that enable the boats to lift up
and skim along, with their hulls above the water. The New Zealand
boat has already been spotted ‘flying’, and the American’s first boat
showed foils on the daggerboard and rudder during its maiden sail.
With the boats approaching 40 knots, the chase boats will struggle
to keep up. This is the fastest, the most technologically advanced
racing in the world. Gael Pawson
The America’s Cup World Series
As a warm up to the 2013 America’s Cup proper, a series in smaller
boats with additional, lower-funded teams, has been running - with
the final events early in 2013. Competing on this circuit are all the
Challengers, the Defender, as well as Ben Ainslie Racing (Great
Britain), Energy Team (France) and China Team.
The World Series is run on small courses close to shore in 45ft
multihulls. The boats are identical and the racing is fast, furious
full of drama. Capsizing is all part of the game. For the sailors,
their kit needs to be light, flexible and yet warm. These are physical
boats, and the athleticism they demand has led to the development
of lighter and more flexible garments.
