“We are extremely proud of our heritage and want to share this celebration with all of our customers who have trusted the Mustang Survival brand with their lives over the last 50 years. It is only fitting to kick things off at the Vancouver International Boat Show, just a few blocks away from the Company’s original Gastown factory,” says Jason Leggatt, Vice President and General Manager of Mustang Survival. “The show also represents a leap into the future for the company, with the introduction of our new technical apparel products as demonstrated in the EP Ocean Racing Collection.”
Within the Mustang Survival booth, attendees will be able to explore and try on the EP Ocean Racing Collection. The Collection was worn by the crew aboard the super-maxi yacht Comanche and her record-setting journeys, and was also recently featured in Red Bull’s Flying on Water mission. Designed for the most elite and extreme ocean sailors, the EP Ocean Racing Collection leverages materials and technologies used in many Mustang Survival military and tactical products. The Collection features:
- EP 38 Ocean Racing Inflatable Vest – A race-ready vest that is compliant with World Sailing (formerly ISAF) requirements and Transport Canada/USCG approvals.

Engineered for the elite ocean racer with premium design features that enable optimal performance.
- EP 6.5 Ocean Racing Outerwear – The DAME Award-nominated outerwear collection designed for elite ocean racing sailors uses military-grade Gore-Tex® fabric for robust breathability, durability and resistance to delamination. The collection includes a dry suit, jacket, salopette, and spray smock with Gore-Tex Pro. The products incorporate premium ingredient components, including AquaSeal® waterproof zippers, Cohaesive™ cinch adjusters and Closed Comfort System™ neck seals for pinnacle performance in nasty conditions.
