A 40-foot sailboat performs an at-sea tow of a disabled vessel after its engine fails near Gijon, Spain. The disabled boat, *Alana Wally*, struggles to maintain progress against a swell pushing toward the coast, with an estimated arrival time under sail alone exceeding eight hours.11:19 To prevent a late-evening arrival, the crew of *Paragon* rigs a tow line using heavy dock lines attached to a stern bridle.10:21 Initial attempts to pass the line using a fender as a float fail when the weight of the heavy line pulls the fender underwater.19:27 The crew successfully completes the connection on a second pass by maneuvering close to the disabled boat’s stern and tossing the line directly.19:55 The operation requires coordinating sail drops on both vessels while drifting in open water.11:54 The tow successfully secures the disabled boat for the transit to the marina. Establishing a clear communication plan and having a contingency to cut the line with a sharp knife are essential safety measures when towing in coastal waters.11:44
