Tow Truck

“Tow Truck has competed in most offshore races pointing north over the last four years, so we feel this year is as good as any for a shot at the great race south,” says owner/skipper Anthony Paterson.  He admits that the boat is not overly suited to extended offshore racing but points that it has twice won the 469nm Sydney Mooloolaba Yacht Race and he, Paul Williams and Brett Filby all sailed on a Mumm 30 in the 2200nm TransPac race from California to Hawaii.  Tow Truck is one of the smallest boats in the fleet.
