    Sailing Anarchy Podcast #75. Designer Thomas Tison

    If you don't know who designer Thomas Tison is, you will now. Tempesta spends the better part of an hour visiting with Tison, from his AC involvement, to his very fast 48' Elita, built of wood, to his latest, the stunning small foiler called the Airborn. Thomas is a smart and interesting dude, and we are sure you'll enjoy the podcast.

    Sailing Anarchy Podcast #73. Sam Manuard

    Our special guest today was French designer Sam Manuard (or as I like to say, use your best hillbilly voice here) Sam ManYOU ard. I'm such a dope. Hot off their impressive class and overall win in the 2026 Transatlantic Race, Sam joined me to talk about the Mach 50 canting keel, daggerboard scow offshore weapon. I found him to be more than happy to talk openly about the new boat, how it sailed, and what they learned. If you don't know who Sam Manuard is, get learnin'. He is one of the best on the planet. Listen here.

    SA Podcast #72. The future is Here.

    Today Tempesta spends too long talking about essentially two boats. The "foiling" Baltic 111' Raven, and the Sam Manuard-designed 50' Scow, Palanad4. His "takes" are ridiculous. But then he reminds us what a failure he is with his IOM story. Oh boy...
