About
Burke Marine is an Australian sailing name with more than five decades of experience keeping crews dry, protected and comfortable on the water. Its online range runs from Super Dry jackets and trousers to PFDs, sea boots, gloves, hats, gear bags and sun-protective clothing. Designed around practical use rather than fashion alone, Burke gear suits dinghy sailors, coastal crews, yacht clubs and anyone who spends long days exposed to spray, wind and sun.
Service area: Brookvale, NSW
Burke Marine has been designing gear for Australian sailors and adventurers since 1971. Its strength is focused rather than sprawling: clothing and personal equipment made for wet, windy and sun-exposed days on the water.
Burke is the house brand here, shaped by decades of fabric and garment design for Australian conditions. Best-known pieces include the Super Dry wet-weather range, while the wider collection covers everything from an ankle boot to a crew polo.
