Offshore Racing. Real Protection. Zero Compromise.

The Rolex Sydney to Hobart is one of the toughest offshore races in the world — and when you’re racing hard, bumps and impacts are part of the reality, especially below deck.

Introducing the Vaikobi Bump Hat Range — launched at the start of summer and designed specifically for offshore yacht racers.
Lightweight, comfortable, and built to provide head protection when it matters most, these bump hats are ideal for life onboard, particularly when moving downstairs in rough conditions.

Best of all, they don’t look like safety gear.
They just look like a cool, stylish hat — so you’ll actually wear it.

For crews lining up for the 2025 Rolex Sydney to Hobart, this is a smart addition to your offshore kit list.

✔ Discreet impact protection
✔ Comfortable for long passages
✔ Designed for offshore racing
✔ Looks great on and below deck

The full Vaikobi Bump Hat Range is available now through your local Vaikobi dealer and at www.vaikobi.com.

Race smart. Protect your head. Finish strong.
