The Royal Geelong Yacht Club is delighted to announce a three-year partnership with premier sailing brand, Musto, as technical apparel and merchandise partner, supporting RGYC and our major events.
Known as the number one sailing brand in the world, Musto partners some of the most prestigious regattas around the globe, including Cowes Week in the United Kingdom and the Rolex Sydney to Hobart Race.
“Musto is a brand born at sea. We have been tried and tested for many years and as a result we have been selected to partner some of the biggest sailing events in the world. From the Volvo Ocean Race, Rolex Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race, Clipper Race, Cowes Week to name a few and now we can proudly add the biggest regatta in the Southern Hemisphere to our portfolio.”
Musto Chief Executive Officer David Oliver said becoming apparel partner with RGYC and its major events including Festival of Sails, had been a long-awaited moment for Musto.
“Aligning with strong brands and strong events is a very high priority for Musto and we have had the Festival of Sails regatta on our radar for a very long while,” he said.
Festival of Sails Chairman Stuart Dickson welcomed the announcement and the partnership with the prestigious brand.
“Musto is a premium sailing brand with a long and successful relationship with some of the world’s premier yachting events. It is exciting to have them on-board for the next three years and we look forward to a successful partnership, starting this summer with the 2020 regatta,” he said.
