“When The Dogs Bark.”

A short film of early communications in the Sydney Hobart Yacht Race. Going back to even carrier pigeons!

Rob McAuley, was the filmmaker behind When The Dogs Bark which was produced in 1990. Rob had “lost” this film and regularly, over the years expressed hope of finding a copy. Here you can see his work and the amazing story.

Rob was a keen yachtsman having joined the CYCA in 1958. A much-regarded member who passed away 16/1/20.
