#32 | Off Watch – A Conversation with Tony Rae

Tony Rae has an incredible resume by any standards – he’s competed in The Ocean Race five times, winning twice, and sailed in The America’s Cup seven times. He’s also carried the heavy responsibility of being one of the race’s trustworthy onboard medics. In this extensive interview Tony re-lives hitting a reef aboard Team Vestas Wind in 2014, we learn the secrets to good leadership, why New Zealand produces so many top-class sailors and he tells us a little-known secret about fellow Kiwi sailing legend Grant Dalton.
