After my 2012 Thru-hike of the Appalachian Trail, my life was changed forever. The challenge of big adventure had me hooked. I soon set a goal of sailing alone and without stopping around the world. In 2017-18, I did just that! Since then, I have taken my podcast aboard my Westsail32 as well as in my everyday life. The shows are a mix of my own past experiences along with interviews of everyday people that have a seemingly endless number of stories themselves.

Well this should be the last of the ocean recordings for a while so today I bring you aboard for the last leg of this voyage that started way back in April down in Florida. It has been a long trip but Sparrow is finally high and dry and getting some much-needed TLC. Thanks for listening.

Today we are getting into the heat and despair of sailing mid-summer in the Atlantic Ocean. This is going to be a bunch of short recordings as I couldn't sit below and cook for all that long during the worst of the heat. Its a battle sometimes but I can say with confidence that the suffering was worth it in the end. Thanks for listening.

Today I chat about the upcoming trip to Cape Cod from North Carolina and all the prep and planning that is needed between now and departure in just a few days. These small passages still require a ton of planning to be safe and successful, so its time to get to work. Thanks for listening.

Today, I sit down with Brandon and chat about the Texas 200. Not a race but an adventure for sure. In his 4th round of the event, Brandon and his brother were caught out in some nasty weather with one of the scariest elements of sailing becoming a reality, lightning! Big thanks to Brandon for sharing his story and all the info about the Texas 200. Thanks for listening.
