If you phone or email into Sailing Chandlery you are likely to reach Jason, outside of work you can see him on the water either on his Laser or Sprint 15.
Spending lots of time on the water Jason has a varied kit bag, here are his top items for this years sailing.
Superwarm X Skiff for all year round and Micro-fleece V Pants for the warmer days on the water.
I have been sailing in the Zhik Superwarm X skiff suit for the last 4 years and here are a few reasons why I love it. At the time I purchased this wetsuit I was looking for a suit that would work for me all year round in my previous job teaching watersports on the Isle Of Wight.
Things I Like About My Superwarm X,
Superwarm X Top
This goes hand in hand with the Skiff suit. The Superwarm X top allows great flexibility and the ability to have different layers for different weather conditions. In the winter I add another layer below and on a cold and windy day I add another on top.
Dinghy Smock
An over top for the wetsuit that provides wind and water protection. Zhiks Performance Smock is lightweight with a large pocket.
The ultimate base layer to keep you warm on the water in all conditions. Soft on the skin and stretchy for the perfect fit.
The Zhik 560 boots are a part of the grip II hiking boot range. The addition of the grip on the top of the foot is essential for extended hiking sessions on the water. As I find myself regularly sailing hiking boats these are great for me. The best part of the boots is how flexible and comfortable they are yet still being supportive with the ankle strap.
PFDs are an essential part of your sailing kit to ensure your safety and finding one that fits you correctly is very important.
Some PFDs can feel very large and bully for dinghy sailing but the Spinlock Wing is a low profile and tapered high cut design that allows great mobility and fit. Adjustable side straps and internal grip help you get a fit that holds to your body.
The Zhik G2 Gloves are Zhik's most advanced gloves to date. Featuring Kevlar stitching, extended reinforcement to the palm and finger panelling to suit rope of all diameters. Ready for any high-performance dinghy or yacht sailing you will be doing.

The mast was delivered the next day what a excellent delivery service I had the mast by 0830 I now know I can count on you, well done.
The 100m reel of 4mm pre-stretched polyester rope I ordered for our Club's fleet of training dinghies is very good quality and really competitively priced. It arrived quickly so we could re-rig control-lines before the week's training course finished.
Quick to order and fast delivery, thank you. Good to have the wheel washers and retaining clips included in the package.
Cannot fault the service received. Queries responded to very quickly, thank you Jason. Very fast, efficient despatch and delivery. My son is very happy with the Aqua fleece.
Wouldn't hesitate to use again.
Great service from Sailing Chandlery - ordered late Thursday evening and my order was dispatched on the Friday, delivered on the Monday (standard delivery option).
The Salopettes seem well made, good fit (per sizing guide) and comfortable. Also very lightweight - time will tell if that equates to less durable as they are definitely far thinner material than others I've had from different manufacturers in the past. I've only tried them on at home so far, so not tested them in the wet but I'm pretty confident they should do the job.
fast delivery with no problems
Ordered Zhik boots and wetsuit easily enough on-line, quick email response reviewing order, and they were despatched same day. Wetsuit is awesome, I wrongly ordered the boots size, a quick phone call, they explained what I needed to do, and they’ve changed them super quick. Didn’t miss any days sailing……..Highly recommend.
Got a set for my son who's 6' 3" and 92KG and L was way too small. Spoke to someone on the phone who was very helpful on sizing. Actually, went for a XXL in the end and he is happy with that fit so I would say these come up a bit small compared to other manufacturers although I guess you want a tight a fit as possible with hikers.
Vert happy with the service and advice. Video was helpful too.
Good quality product that was delivered very quickly
Got this top as I was looking for something which could keep me dry and warm at the same time in the best effective way possible, allowing me to have freedom of movement. All came to this top and it was definitely the right choice.
Well manufactured. Good quality product. The neoprene waist band makes sure you will be comfortable and as it stays adjusted all the time. Same thing goes to the wrist area.
Overall it is a really good product, best quality vs price I found and not disappointed.
Very speedy delivery and looks great on the Laser
Replaced easily enough. Same dimensions as the original on the boat. Works perfectly and keeps everything neat now.
I had given up all hope
Ordered gloves one evening and dispatched the following day
Very quick and efficient
Will definitely use again
Significantly cheaper than a class official sail but also much more longwearing so win / win!! Only slight criticism is that on the latest sail, the furling direction to get the velcro tape to hold the sail rolled is opposite to the marked direction on a Pico lower mast....
apart from that - strongly recommended
