Welcome to the Mach 2 Blog

We've started this blog so we can publish news and views by Mach 2 sailors for Mach 2 sailors. And for journalists who've got to write about something and need inspiration. If you've arrived here, but need information about the boat, the brand and how to order please go to our corporate site.
This site does not have any of that information, so why does it exist? Well in this, the "Next Generation" of our sport, the corporate site could be likened to the "Vulcan neck pinch", professional, efficient and slick. Not half as powerful as the "Vulcan kick in the bollocks" though, but more politically correct. Sometimes you need both.. Send us you news, read what we have to say, and enjoy..

Merry Christmas from Mach2




Its been another great year for Mach2 and we'd just like to take this opportunity to wish all Mach2 sailors and all Moth sailors a wonderful Christmas and a Happy and Prosperous New Year.

This time last year we were frantically getting ready for the Belmont Worlds, with a container load of Mach2's and spare parts on their way to Sydney!

Nathan won brilliantly! We retained our World Title and then got back to work. A few months later we introduced the new Mach2.1 upgrade, and in September we were delighted to welcome Simon Propper to the team. Simon aka "Hollywood" is the Mach2 representative for the West Coast USA and is already doing a great job of engaging local sailors.

This year we don't have a big event near Christmas, and it gives us a chance to spend some time with our families and cheer on all the Mach2 sailors doing so well in Perth at the ISAF Worlds and also on the Volvo Ocean Race.

Soon though it will be back to work, and 2012 is a real focus for Mach2. We want to excel once more at the World Championships at Campioni, Lake Garda in Italy during August, and with the last four World Champions sailing Mach2's we feel we've got a good chance.

Most of all though this event is important to us as it gives us a chance to meet many of our customers, some for the first time, and we need to be there to give them all the support we can!

Merry Christmas from Mach2.
