I’ve been listening to this podcast for over a year - the guests bring good experience and informative perspectives and the hosts are great. I like their recap at the end of every episode
As a sailor but one with maybe ~5 yrs experience on my own boat, I usually take away 1-2 interesting useful facts per episode, eg height limit on ICW, reviews of new ports I don’t know (Wickford, RI, Oriental NC…). The hosts are decent if not the most thrilling. It’s easy to consume and informative (but not like deep tutorials, so far). I pick and choose the past episodes of interest.

Thanks for having me on, really enjoyed talking with you!
If you have more than 3-5 years of experience this podcast is a WoT. Silly beginners discussions for the most part. The cohost lacking saioo lol inc experience needs or be dropped. Adds no value. some guests ok, but hearing about some inexperienced sailor bringing his Hunter down the coast is laughable at best.

This show centers on practical sailing and coastal cruising along the East Coast, mixing destination-focused discussions with hands-on tips for building skills, equipment, and safety at sea.
