Back in 2002, Sail Racing got the assignment to outfit an expedition crew headed for Antarctica that was led by Richard Brisius and one of the most experienced around the world sailor, Magnus ”Mange” Olsson. The group was driven by the desire to retrace one of the most significant, yet nearly forgotten, voyages to the Antarctic 100 years earlier, the expedition of Otto Nordenskjöld. The crew was provided with clothes for sailing in the extremely cold environment and windy conditions they would face on a daily basis. The result was the Sail Antarctica Expedition collection. Today, this collection is used by, among others, the sailing legend Skip Novak, Martin Enckell, and Paul Nicklen on various expeditions.
Since 2002, we have constructed and created 5 different versions of the Glacier Bay Parka, each one with improvements and new technology but with the same DNA still in place.
