The OS3 Coastal Jacket Ocean is Gill’s mid-tier shell, pitched between an inshore jacket and full offshore kit, so it covers most of what club and cruising sailors actually do. XPLORE handles the waterproofing while the XPEL finish sheds spray and dirt, which keeps the outer face working rather than wetting out after a season. Its collar sits high and is fleece lined, so you can zip fully up without the fabric chafing on a long helm. The hood lining is hi-vis and reflective panels run across the garment, both of which earn their keep on an evening return into Galway Bay. Sized here in XL, this coastal sailing jacket suits day sailing, club racing and coastal cruising in Irish waters through most of the year.
