Rainman Watermakers Join as sponsors

Welcome aboard to new sponsors for the 2020 rally, Rainman Watermakers.

Rainman are simply the best option for anyone out cruising from their fully mobile units to their installed “Naked” units, just one word Awesome!

We’ve been cruising for many years now and in my humble opinion a Watermaker is an absolute essential for offshore and extended coastal cruising. Particularly SE Asia where potable water is simply not available and rain can be, firstly toxic (volcanic ash or fires as in 2017/18) and sometimes few and far between.

To help, Rainman are offering a $400 discount on any full system purchase (on presentation of your Rally Participation Certificate) which is available through “The Watermakers Man” in Australia and “Marine Electrics NZ” in New Zealand.
