Have been listening to Captain Wettig for a few years now, always fresh content with a focus on the Chesapeake Bay and the rest for the sailing planet. Keep up the great work sir!
I can never get this podcast to play. All other podcast play just fine but I’m never ever able to get this one to play.
Great guests and Captain Wettig is an engaging host! I feel like I'm right there with him and his guest(s) having an adult beverage and swapping stories. Sail on!
I bought a sailboat before ever having sailed, and Jeffrey has been a bit of an inspiration. Have to thank Derrick Cogburn (whose boat Arcadia I bought) for the intro to the podcast. Love to hear about other people’s misadventures so I don’t feel so bad about being the world’s worst sailor.
Sail On, Brother.
Great chats, banter and tunes. SAIL ON BROTHER
