2011 - 2012 BMW Yachtsport Collection Launched

BMW Yachtsport Collection
Joining the latest Golfsport range in the 2011/2012 Sports Collections Catalog from BMW is the new Yachtsport Collection, which comes to celebrate the BMW Sailing Cup, the world’s biggest amateur regatta series that is set to debut this May. The new Yachtsport Collections features yachtwear for women and men, as well as maritime leisure looks and accessories.

BMW has cooperated with Henri Lloyd, the technical yachtwear specialist, when it developed and manufactured its Yachtsport products.

Taken separately, the Yachting Wind Jacket features high-performance material that is a hundred percent wind- and waterproof. Details like its neon-yellow signal hood with reflectors, saltwater-resistant, two-way zippers, and ergonomically shaped sleeves are included.

“So no matter what the shipping forecast, the BMW Yachtsport Collection offers the right performance equipment for the crew, from warm fleece jackets with high collars, to wind jackets and long- and short-sleeved shirts,” a company statement reads.

Furthermore, the Yachting ladies’ dress is both elegant and practical, and is joined by items such as the Sailing Edition shirt and casual shorts. Details include the BMW lettering in the form of international maritime signal flags, and the 4I6 design element reminiscent of the BMW Sailing Cup.

The collection also comprises a series of accessories to match the crew’s outfits. More vulnerable items can be stored safely in the drybag. The large, 47-liter drybag is a good place for the deck shoes, alongside a camera and a laptop. "Like its 11-liter little brother, its sealed seams and useful roll-up closure make the bag one hundred percent waterproof," BMW says.

Other luggage from the collection, like the flip flops, cap, and beach towel, can be stowed in the duffle bag or the beach bag.
