- My favourite sailing podcast
When I started listening to The Mariner, it quickly became my favourite sailing podcast. I simply enjoy listening to CSM chatting about the tricks of his trade and telling stories of the great oceans. Professional sailing has never been so approachable. I am sure that I will find myself in a position some time in the future when I try to solve a problem on board and think of his words. 5 star podcast! Thank you Chris!

United States10 months ago - Insightful and passionate
As a new skipper, I appreciate the insightful comments that allow text book knowledge, real world practise, and modern seamanship to coalesce in a reasonable and practical way. As far as I’m concerned the more practical and nitty-gritty the better! Thanks!

Canadaa year ago - Robert Redford Movie??
Are you comparing a Hollywood movie to a real life vessel emergency situation? Did I mis hear ? Surely not.. the movie is a drawn out fabrication of poor skills applied to an otherwise pretty quick demise..
