In this episode, I take a moment to address some recent negativity from former crewmates. While I won’t name anyone or speak ill of them, I wanted to share my feelings of disappointment and how I’m choosing to respond with positivity. I also want to thank everyone who’s sailed with me over the years, and I’m honored by the memories we’ve shared. On a brighter note, former crewmate Sydney sent in a beautiful video sharing her appreciation for her time on board. Tune in for a mix of gratitude, reflection, and a little behind-the-scenes honesty.

From lightning strikes and engine failure to fires and man overboard situations—this episode dives deep into the scariest things that can happen on a boat. I’ve lived through a few of these, and others are every sailor’s nightmare. But fear not—this episode isn’t just about horror stories. We break down how often these emergencies happen and give real-world tips on how to prevent or survive each one. If you’ve got a wild sea story, drop it in the comments—I might feature it in a future episode!
