Roland N.
by Roland N. Flag of Germany 5/1/2026 Deckhand Gloves / Long Finger / black Verified purchase Variant: 474356
Very good quality - but the fit isn't ideal for me!
Gill produces high-quality gloves with impeccable workmanship and materials.

For me personally, the ratio of hand width to finger length isn't quite perfect.

The three long, closed fingers of the gloves are slightly too short for me in size L, so my fingers constantly bump against them. (I wore out a pair in L relatively quickly because the fingertips eventually broke.)
In size XL, not only is the palm a little too wide for me (I could live with that), but the thumb, which is meant to be half-length, is so long that my thumb barely sticks out. So, unfortunately, the fit isn't optimal for me – but that might be different for other people. The gloves are absolutely recommendable in terms of quality!

Roland N.
by Roland N. Flag of Germany 5/1/2026 ESSENTIAL SAILING 2.0 Glove / long fingers / black Verified purchase Variant: 482596
Good fit and comfortable material!
I often have the issue with sailing gloves that the three long fingers are a little too short for me, even if the hand width is a perfect fit. (Size L fits me in terms of hand width, and XL in terms of finger length.) This tends to be the case with Musto gloves as well, but less pronounced than with Gill or Harken.

I bought the Musto gloves in XL. The finger length is perfect, and there's still enough room for my thumb to stick out (unlike Gill gloves in XL). They're incredibly comfortable.

Interestingly, I don't even notice the palm being cut slightly too wide for my liking in practice – the gloves still provide a good grip and hold on the rope.

It's also easy to wear a regatta watch at the same time.

The material and workmanship appear to be of very high quality.

It works, albeit with some initial difficulties.
Since I initially thought the display was defective, I wanted to return it. Upon startup, the rotating mouse icon appears, but after that, only two stitches are shown in the center. The Illumination button doesn't even work. This indicates a break in the connection to the transmitter. At first, I suspected the Phillips connectors at the deck joint. However, it turned out to be the adhesive tape on the diode connector. The connector had slipped apart, and the tape was leaking. I reconnected it this time using heat-shrink tubing. The device now works. Unfortunately, the manual doesn't describe this problem.
Very disappointed by SVB's lack of flexibility
This review is explicitly not about the product itself, but about the lack of flexibility of SVB's customer service.

I bought the set and found that the boat was too small for my needs. Therefore, I contacted SVB customer service and asked them to take the inflatable boat back. I wanted to buy the same model two sizes larger.

It's worth mentioning that the boat is back in its original packaging and has only been removed once.

I was then informed that a return would only be possible if I sent both the boat and the motor back.

Since I had already put the motor into operation and disposed of the packaging, this wasn't possible for me. I definitely wanted to keep the motor, as it's perfect for my needs.

I find it very disappointing that SVB is unable to offer an alternative solution.

Now I will probably sell the inflatable boat privately and buy a larger one from another supplier.

The vase is not watertight. The vase deforms very quickly.
After a few days of use, the cup deformed (very poor temperature resistance) and completely detached from the top of the support, posing a significant danger for filtering and separating water from gasoline.
