Top Speed 27.3 Knot's Sydney-Brisbane Delivery 2009
MPYachting's Matt Pearce at the wheel of SKANDIA WILD THING with fellow crew member and bow girl Sophie Ciszek. A favourite shot from a delivery last year from Sydney to Brisbane. Matt delayed the delivery by 3 days so he could leave on the front of a 20-30 knot southerly. SKANDIA was sailed at a blistering pace to Brisbane in 33 hours 35 minutes from the CYCA in Sydney to Rivergate Marina on the Brisbane river.

NEW Boom & Tent Cover for "Brindabella"
MPYachting is extremely happy to be associated with a part of Australian maritime history by manufacturing a new boom tent and mainsail cover for Brindabella's new owner Jim.
The rigging side of MPYachting is working at present on updating all of the running rigging & halyards on board the yacht and will have her rigged & ready to be sailed hard this summer.
Matt Pearce is looking forward to the upcoming sailing season at the CYCA where he will be a regular on board the yacht, sailing as a crew boss and helmsman with Brindabella's racing team.
Special thanks goes out to Boat Captain Justin (Bluey) Sutherland for all his help in allowing MPYachting to assist in bringing Brindabella back to her former glorious racing days of the past.
