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.

Today we have a heavy hitter on the podcast, Jon Bilger is the founder and CEO of Predict Wind, the world's premier weather forecasting and routing software used by millions of sailors around the world. As a low-tech sailor myself it was very interesting to listen to the advances in technology and plans for future improvements to help make sailing as safe as possible. Big thanks to Jon for taking some time away from a very busy schedule to chat about one of the most valuable tools an offshore sailor can have.

Today I rant and rave a bit about working and all that entails, I have been missing the type of work where you feel sore the next day and get your hands dirty. But before I am off to the boat, I wanted to get the podcast in for all of my wonderful listeners. Plus, it has been a while since I did a solo show, thanks for listening!

Today we have a technical episode with Sven. He and I go over the 11-page form for taking measurements of the rig on a sailboat. If you are thinking of getting new sails made, chances are that you will be given this form if you want to do this yourself. I used this recording to help me with the process a few days ago on Sparrow and it made filling in the forms a breeze. Big thanks to Sven for sharing his time and expertise in this area.

Today I sit with my other brother, Adam, and talk about tech on sailboats the good and the bad, as well as some of the project that he was working on with that beautiful Westsail 32 Montana. Glad to have him on the show and can't wait to get into the world of boat surveys in the future. Thanks for sharing your time and insight.

You never know who you are going to meet each day, Julian and I just happened to be in the same place at the same time and both have circled the globe in very different ways. Me with Sparrow and him with a highspeed Jet aircraft! Julian shares some of his stories from the trip, his past and the plans for the next adventure, heading across the Atlantic from the Caribbean to the Med. Good luck and big thanks for sharing your time with the show!

Today, I sit with fellow Westsailor James Hodge, he and I have been connected for a few years now and will be in the same boatyard for a few months this summer. James shares his plans for the boat and is just a heck of a guy to sit and have a fun conversation with. Besides being a sailor, he is also a comedian, and you can find information on him on his Facebook page. Thanks for listening.

Today I though because of the Leap Year date I would do a quick update show about the coming weeks and months. Some exciting stuff coming up, adventures, presentations, opportunities and much more. A lot of this stuff is only in the planning stages, but it always helps me to talk things through and get feedback from the audience. Thanks for listening.
