Excellent Start, Please Continue

My husband and I very much enjoy your podcasts. Marketing them to wannabe cruisers is probably a good idea. This is not a podcast for folks casually interested in sailing but rather those who are preparing to cut the lines and leave on an extended cruise. I think you can shorten your audio environment sections or diversify them. But the content is very useful and entertaining. THANK YOU!

Fantastic

Great log of the author's cruising experiences. I've enjoyed every episode, and it became more exciting when they headed West.

Interesting, simple, I always look forward to the next episode

I really enjoy this podcast. Keep it up, Martin!

This podcast discusses the realities of cruising by sail. Martin talks about issues with the boat, with the destination, visiting new places, latest rumors and anchorages, etc. It makes me - a total landsman - want to go cruising.
