    Hi All,

    My nephews birthday is coming up, his first. And my brother and his wife are mad about sailing and i thought a baby musto or henry llyod would be perfect but am having huge problems trying to find one.

    Anyone any suggestions on where i can get babywear for sailing?

    Thanks a mill!

    Is it really a good idea to bring a 1 year old baby out on any boat that they would need them to be in waterproofs?
    If the boat is big enough to have a cabin then they should be in there, but if they are going to be blasted by salt water and wind I think its abit irresponsible TBH.

    Its more for casual wear the jacket is and as for waterproofs.....thats not really what im looking for. My sister is getting him deck shoes and the other sister is getting him a life jacket for if they do take him out. he is hardly going to be holding ropes and watching the gooseneck and all hands on deck.......I am simply looking for a musto jacket or henry llyod jacket for casual wear but when they have him down the club he has all the gear on....
