Dan is competing in the Mini Globe Race, sailing a 5.80m self built boat around the World and he has really started to find his legs. Part race, part adventure, all awesome, there is plenty to catch up with. Enjoy!!

This week, we chat to one of the best, the Master of Match Racing, Ian Williams. 8 times World Champion in one of the most intense forms of sailing. He is also an Americas Cup coach, SailGP coach and World Champion in a bunch of other classes. Detailed and analytical. Our conversation was fantastic. The chat felt like it was 5 minutes long. You will love it.

We think this weeks episode may become one of our most listened to of all time. It was a riot. So much fun. Our guest was Tracy Schmitt, one of the competitors in the Hansa World Championships. Tracy is a Canadian, Quadruple amputee. She won a bronze medal in alpine downhill para-skiing at the Ontario Parasport Games and was inducted into the Canadian Disability Hall of Fame. Tracy has a long sailing history. She received the Robert W. Jackson Award, Ontario Premier Award, and C-SASIL Lifetime Achievement Award. But most importantly, she showed up wanting to have a good time and we did.

We had one two hour window over two weeks to put an episode together. We spoke to Luigi Maffioli from Gottifredi Maffioli. Luigi is a long time friend. His companies ropes were used in the Cup, in the Ocean Race, throughout the Olympics, Superyachts and at Foiling Week. They make some very cool stuff and understanding ropes is critical to being a good sailor. As always it was a fun discussion. Enjoy!

We have wanted to do a cruising chat for a long time and with the Oyster World Rally about to come to an end, we made a call to a boat in the middle of an ocean. We spoke to Scott Bailey, long time marine identity as he cruised his Oyster 595 JaZoFi around the World. We talk dreaming, planning, and the whole adventure. If you have ever thought about doing it, this episode will light a fire under you.

Episode 300, who would have thought!

To celebrate we reached out to Cole Brauer. 2nd in the 2023–2024 Global Solo Challenge, setting a new around-the-world speed record for the class 40. And the first woman from the United States to race single-handed around the world nonstop. Plus, she has changed the game in her ability to connect to the public through her social media presence. There is plenty to discuss and of course we had a tonne of fun doing it. Enjoy!
