    'VERY GOOD ALL-ROUND YACHT OR DISPLACEMENT POWERBOAT JACKET'
    Strengths:
    Very light and warm, good level of breathability. Very high windproof collar with stiff hood. Secure pockets and useful hand warmers. Bright and hard wearing, still good after 4 months spring and autumn leisure/commercial use 5-6 days per week. Good walking jacket as well.
    Weaknesses:
    Front collar closure too tight and not very secure. Cuffs a little tight as well. Pockets only showerproof.
    Overall:
    I'm still using it for 2007 as an all-rounder.
