Mustang Survival

On December 19, 2023, Captain Hailey M. and Ocean Rutherford made history as the first all-female tugboat crew in the 70-year history of SAAM Towage. Growing up together in Prince Rupert, BC, the pair have pursued their dreams, overcome challenges, risen through the ranks, and continue to live life to the fullest on the water. The pair are passionate about making the maritime industry more accessible to everyone. Head over to The Captain's Blog to learn more about their historic journey and how our gear supports their mariner lifestyle from Work to Play. #livebeyondland https://lnkd.in/gRDTkFb6

We had another fantastic Mustang Survival Fashion Show this weekend! This time, it was part of the Boston Harbor Ladies Challenge at Savin Hill Yacht Club. It’s hard to believe this was our fifth show already. We’re so grateful for the chance to connect with recreational sailors from the metro Boston area, Cape Cod, and Newport, RI. #livebeyondland

Check out this setup 🔥 We're so stoked to show off our newest inflatable range, kids vests, and technical apparel collections to retailers from North America and beyond at this year's ICAST show! Visit us at Booth 1808 to see the new pieces Mustang Survival has on deck and meet our amazing ambassadors: Carl Jocumsen, Hunter Bland, and Annie Nagel. Looking forward to a great next few days! #livebeyondland #ICAST2024

Exciting news! We're proud to announce our partnership with the Canadian Safe Boating Council (CSBC) as the Presenting Sponsor for their annual symposium, "Many Partners, One Goal," in Whistler, BC, from October 1-3.   Partnering with the Canadian Safe Boating Council is a natural fit for us, aligning perfectly with our mission to protect life on the water. Mustang Survival has long supported CSBC, and we're honoured to deepen our commitment to their mission.   After the event, we invite symposium guests to join us at our Burnaby, BC headquarters on October 4th for an Open House. This event offers a unique opportunity to tour our factory floor, witness our operations firsthand, see innovation in action, and learn about our commitment to safety and quality. Our technical engineers will demonstrate testing procedures for flotation and dry suits in our specialized pool and lab facilities. For registration, symposium program details, and information about the Mustang Survival Open House, please visit the CSBC website. #livebeyondland https://lnkd.in/g737mqEq

One of our standout volunteering events each year is Boat For Hope, a pirate-themed adventure on False Creek supporting Variety, the Children's Charity. Boat for Hope originated in 1998 when James Safronek and Rick Cassels, a longtime Mustang Survival team member, were enjoying a sunny afternoon in Vancouver’s False Creek. Over a meal and a drink, James reflected on how fortunate he was to have access to experiences on the water, especially on a boat. Inspired, they quickly put a plan in motion, making Boat for Hope a reality. Since 1999, Variety’s Boat for Hope has provided a unique boating experience for children with disabilities, as well as their caregivers and families. For the hundreds of kids who participate each year, it’s a thrilling opportunity to sail with pirates and simply enjoy being a kid.

This week, we had the honour of hosting an exceptional guest! Cole Brauer visited our Burnaby HQ, where she toured the facility, spoke with our team about her incredible journey to become the first American woman to race solo non-stop around the world, and collaborated with our product team on future sailing gear. As the youngest and only female contender in the Global Solo Challenge, she achieved an impressive second place after 130 days at sea. Standing at just 5'2" and weighing under 100 pounds, Cole has shown that with grit, determination, and perseverance, anything is possible. We're thrilled to support her with our technical gear. #livebeyondland

We had such an amazing time at the #NWSASailingConference2024, hosted by the National Women's Sailing Association (NWSA)! It was such a great opportunity for us to show off our latest Women's apparel lineup, including Cole Brauer's "go-to" pieces, to a crowd of passionate sailors. At Mustang Survival, we're committed to creating gear that makes life easier and more comfortable for women athletes and we're grateful for the opportunity to highlight this commitment whenever possible. #livebeyondland. #NWSASailingConference #Sailing #MustangSurvival #WomenInSport
