Harken UK is pleased to announce a new contract to continue their partnership with the British Sailing Team, in advance of the Olympic Games in Los Angeles, 2028.

The British Sailing Team are proud to continue our working relationship with Harken UK as the Official Hardware Supplier. As a company and brand, Harken has a long-standing commitment to performance sailing, from grass roots participation to elite level sailing globally.

Our ongoing partnership ensures that British Sailing Team, squad, transitional and youth sailors will continue to benefit from Harken's technical expertise, service and product advice, as well as access to our industry-leading hardware at exclusive discounted rates.

It also allows both parties to continue to work on product research, testing and development to improve the range of deck hardware available for all abilities of sailors partaking in the sport.

Tom Peters, Managing Director for Harken UK, commented: "We're proud and excited to continue our relationship with the fantastic team at the British Sailing Team. Over the past 25 years, Harken UK has been privileged to play a part in many successful Olympic campaigns and it's an honour to work alongside the next generation of world-class sailors, from those just starting out in the sport, right through to the top elite level British sailors. We're excited to see what we can deliver and achieve together in the lead-up to the Olympic Games and throughout the event itself in 2028."

Mark Robinson, Performance Director for the British Sailing Team, commented: "Harken UK has been an important supporter of the British Sailing Team for many years, and their technical expertise, reliability and commitment to performance sailing are hugely valued. This renewed partnership ensures our athletes continue to have access to world-class equipment and support as we build towards LA 28. We're delighted to be continuing this relationship and look forward to working closely together over the coming years."
