Helly Hansen partners with Storm Trysail Club and launches online store


A quality sailing kit is essential to keep you protected from the varying elements at Block Island Race Week, so Storm Trysail Club is happy to announce that Helly Hansen has signed on as the Official Clothing Supplier for Block Island Race Week presented by Margaritaville. They will be onsite in June selling their high quality gear and today opened the online regatta store with Team1Newport to start taking orders.

“It is great to be a part of an event like Storm Trysail Club Block Island Race Week with a rich tradition and high caliber of competition. We look forward to meeting the sailors on land and watching them compete,” says Jenny Daudlin, Watersports Marketing Manager for Helly Hansen.

“Weather on Block Island in June can vary widely,” says Race Chair Ray Redniss. “From sunny and warm, to cold, foggy, and raw within hours, the need to have an array of layers and good gear is imperative. We are thrilled Helly Hansen has joined us to keep us comfortable and protected doing what we love to do.”
