#shorts Off grid living requires attention to detail. If a towing line breaks it could mean losing a very valuable piece of equipment for those living aboard a boat. Knowing a few basic knots turned a potential headache into a minor fix. Also, setting up a redundant system saved me from having to buy a new dinghy! My advice is ALWAYS have backup lines if you tow your dinghy. Also, I should have put in abrasion guards of some sort but I didn’t! Off grid living requires planning ahead. This was a clear example of just how important that is.

On a day of sunshine with 15-18 knots of southwesterly breeze, John Taylor’s Vindaloo and Rohan Veal’s 38 South Racing had a chance to really show off what they can do. There were plenty of big smiles amongst the crew as the two boats lit up downwind, exchanging gybes and finishing within a boat length of each other on the first race. “That was lots of fun” said John Taylor with a broad grin as as he stepped off his boat. www.mcconaghyboats.com www.facebook.com/McConaghyBoats @Yachting World @Sailing World magazine @Seahorse Sailing Magazine @Yachting Australia @Sailing Anarchy @Live Sail Die @Sail World @Australian Sailing + Yachting @NSW Maritime has @TPDmedia @Scuttlebutt Sailing News
