MEET ERIN MCGINTY

Erin McGinty is an avid spearfisher with multiple world records to her name. Her deep passion for the marine environment led her to earn a PhD in Marine Science and bought her own boat so that every good weather day she could be out on the water! Over the years, Erin’s love for exploration took her to some of Australia’s most remote regions, including the Kimberley and Torres Straits, where she lived and worked as a marine scientist. Now based in Cairns, Erin spends her time creating adventure content, sharing her experiences with the world.

ERIN’S NORWELD SETUP

To complement her off-grid lifestyle, Erin runs a Norweld Deluxe Compact Canopy, a durable and functional setup built to handle Australia’s toughest conditions.

“I chose Norweld because they’re the most durable canopy I could find on the market. For me, it was important to get a canopy that I could rely on because I’m doing so many trips in a year, and I didn’t want to spend all my time coming back fixing things.”

 

Her canopy has everything she needs to live and work remotely. With plenty of space to organise her spearfishing gear, dive kit, air compressor and off-grid essentials, her build also comes with an Enerdrive Extreme wiring package with 12V system, dual lithium batteries and a 2000W inverter. This powerful setup gives Erin enough power to run fridges, charge drones, cameras and GoPros.

Being able to camp off-grid for a week in the heat, mozzies and sandflies and still be comfortable, has completely changed how Erin travels. It’s not just about having a tough canopy, but a setup that’s genuinely practical in range of tropical environments. As Erin puts it, every component feels like it’s been properly tested before ever reaching her.

“It’s literally set up for everything I need to do.”
