The Magenta Project has launched the 2×25 global survey, marking the start of the most ambitious equity and inclusion review ever undertaken in sailing and the wider marine industry.

Building on the landmark 2019 Women in Sailing Strategic Review, where 59% of women reported personal discrimination and 80% said gender imbalance was a problem, through this new survey Magenta Project intends to expand the lens to include more research into race, ableism, and age.

Backed by 11th Hour Racing and supported by World Sailing, 2×25 is led by The Magenta Project, a global initiative committed to equity and inclusion in sailing, in collaboration with a team of researchers and advisors.

Everyone that is involved in sailing and/or the marine industry, from all genders and backgrounds, is invited to complete this survey to help build a more inclusive future for the sport.

The survey runs from July to September 2025, with results to be presented in November 2025. Take the survey here: themagentaproject25.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_0VPakFDbA84Ahj8
