World ARC 2027-28 Unisex Forza 1 Jacket

Built for the long miles, changeable conditions, and exposed passages of the World ARC 2027–28, the Forza 1 Waterproof Jacket is a high-performance outer layer designed to keep you dry, comfortable, and moving freely at sea.

With a 10,000mm waterproof rating and 4,000 g/m²/24h breathability, this fully taped jacket handles spray, rain, and damp watchkeeping without overheating when you’re active on deck. The durable two-way stretch polyester and ergonomic cut — with articulated armholes and elbows — allow natural movement when trimming sails, handling lines, or working on deck.

Waterproof zips, adjustable Velcro cuffs, and a drawcord hem (coulisse) help seal out the weather, while the neon-yellow roll-away hood adds valuable visibility in poor conditions. An inner pocket provides secure storage for essentials when you’re on watch.

Lightweight yet protective, this is the kind of technical jacket that earns its place in your sea bag from the first leg to the final landfall.
