Musto, the world's leading sailing brand, has renewed its partnership with the British Sailing Team for another four years, extending support through to the 2028 Los Angeles Olympic Games.

The agreement also expands Musto's backing across the wider Royal Yachting Association (RYA) with Musto becoming an Official Partner of the RYA.

Since first teaming up in 2009, Musto and the British Sailing Team have worked closely to develop high-performance technical clothing designed specifically for the demands of elite sailing. This partnership has been instrumental in helping British athletes perform at their best on the international stage.

As part of the renewed partnership, Musto will now support a wider range of RYA programmes, events, and initiatives, ensuring impact is felt across all levels of the sport.

Sara Sutcliffe, RYA CEO said, 'Musto will play a vital role in supporting not only performance sailing, but our Together on Water strategy helping to drive inclusion, inspiration, and engagement across all areas of boating and watersports - all while sharing our commitment to reducing environmental impact.'

RYA members, and accredited RYA instructors, will continue to enjoy exclusive premium benefits through the renewed partnership. More details can be found at RYA Musto Benefits.

"We are proud to continue our long-standing relationship with the British Sailing Team and extend our partnership across the RYA," commented Nick Houchin, Musto Marketing Director.

"This new four-year partnership allows us to further collaboratively develop our performance sailing gear and continue to build on the successes to date with the British Sailing Team, and Musto is also very excited at the prospect of extending our partnership across every area of boating and watersports, whether inshore or offshore, to reach more and more sailors going forward."

To celebrate the partnership - and the RYA's 150th anniversary - RYA members can also enter an exclusive prize draw to win a Musto Offshore Jacket worth £500, plus £150 in vouchers. Entry details can be found in the Autumn issue of the RYA Magazine.
