Exposure Marine, the British brand trusted by offshore racers and marine professionals, proudly unveils the RAW Plus – a compact, lightweight handheld torch designed specifically for performance sailing and offshore racing.
Delivering up to 400 lumens of focused white or red light, the RAW Plus is compliant with the World Sailing Offshore Special Regulations (OSR) for personal lighting—meeting the requirement for a waterproof, handheld torch with a minimum 400-lumen output.
Built with sailors in mind, the RAW Plus includes an ultra-low red mode that preserves night vision and can run for up to 110 hours, making it ideal for long offshore passages, night watches, and early-morning starts. The USB-C charging ensures convenient, universal chargeability—whether on board, dockside, or at sea.
The RAW Plus is machined from a single piece of aluminium for ultimate durability and strength, ensuring resilience in the toughest marine environments.
Its launch coincides with the 51st edition of the Rolex Fastnet Race, where preparation and compliance are paramount. With its OSR-ready design, compact form, and powerful red-light capability, the RAW Plus is the perfect personal torch for Fastnet crews and beyond.
