How Not To Sail

It's party time!

Strange how much this episode from a "pre-How Not To Sail" podcast parallels this week's events—and how little I learned from my experience. Don’t forget,...

We're getting ready for some large fun!

Some news about the Zoom party, a certain boat show...and what I've been screwing around with.

I try to actally fix a coupla things so I can get back "home"...and make a disturbing discovery at the last minute.

A big crane (a.k.a. a “travel lift”) plucks my sailboat from the water, hopefully in one piece. And we meet an old friend.

What the @#*$&^ is going on this week, you ask? This is the answer.

I cruise up the Gulf Coast, discover how dangerous sunscreen can be, and...maybe(???) get hauled out?

I fail to repair my thru-hull valves but learn How Not To Snuba and just a wee bit about diesel engines. And maybe I'm optimistic?

Ex-biker, bodyguard to Evel Knievel and 100,00-mile world sailor. You know Captain Bob Bitchin has some great How Not To Sail stories! And is that...Morgan Freeman?!??

Thanks so much to everyone who helped out by taking the survey! (BTW, it's not to late to make your voice heard!)

Calm down, it’s about one of the most important things on a boat…the refrigerator. I discover a super-cool “feature” that’s been buried for a decade. And if “Blowtorch Mike” wasn’t colorful enough, surely “Reefer Mike” is?
