Simon Hull, TeamVodafoneSailing skipper and now the skipper of the GC32 Zhik VodafoneSailing has the New Zealand franchise for Zhik and will be opening the first Zhik shop in New Zealand in the coming weeks.

The retail outlet will stock the full range of Zhik sailing apparel from apres-sail through their Olympic range and the full offshore range.

Simon and Harry Hull will be providing feedback to Zhik on apparel development and are keen to involve New Zealand sailors in this process which is a vital part of the Zhik success story.

At the end of January, Sail-World had a look through the Zhik head office and design/development and test facility in Sydney, and got the inside view of what is coming up. You'll be able to see for yourself in the new store, which will be located in central Auckland.

In the meantime here is a gallery of images from Suellen Hurling / Team Vodafone Sailing taken during a sail aboard the ORMA60 TeamVodafoneSailing soon after the announcement that Zhik would start a New Zealand operation.
