I love this podcast because like Pete, I came to sailboat racing later in life.
Pete, being endlessly curious, passionate about sailing, and thoughtful, therefore understands what he does not know to be the best he can be, so asks similar questions as I might, as I struggle to be better racer, sailor, skipper, and owner.

Apple Podcasts5C.W. JonesUnited States2 years ago - Great podcast for yacht racing!
Love Sailfaster - I’ve taken away so many useful tips from the chats with top sailors. I keep a notebook next to me when listening! So many sailing podcasts are too general, or feature crusty and boring old guys. Sailfaster is different - I like the self-deprecating vibe the British host brings to the conversation, I suspect it’s disarming and prompts the interviewees to spill their beans on what makes them better racers!
