This week we chat to Ben Lamb

Ben is a former Americas Cup sailor, Etchells World Champion, and competitor on the World Match racing Tour. Now he competes on the M32 circuit and is part of programs in the Maxi 72’s, TP50’s and J70’s. One of the most respected blokes in the boat park and a Defender driver. Lots of fun to be had.

We chat to Simon Fisher (SIFI) the navigator from 11th Hour Racing after the humungous Southern Ocean Leg of the the Ocean Race. 11th Hour went through the wars on this leg and SIFI takes behind the scenes, plus tells us what he has seen on the other boats and lets you know what it feels like to live the life.

We chat to Jake Keilman and Todd Wilson the founders of Vakaros. The pathways to success in sailing are many and varied. Todd and Jake of started their own business, making the cool Vakaros product. We thought people would enjoy this in two ways, 1. the story of creating your own sailing business and 2. for those with a Vakaros, knowing how to use it better. Turned out Jake and Todd are massive fans of the show and the banter flowed. We loved it, enjoy!

We have 200 episodes in the can. We decided to push our superstar guest a week and look back at what we have done. We explain the pathway to Bar Karate, the name, give some behind the scenes info, talk about our favourite episodes. There is an enormous amount here. Its definitely not one of those stupid best of shows. Enjoy! Oh, I had to tick the explicit button because we had a 4 minute sound bite from the Netti episode. If you have kids listening and don't like swearing, thats all you have to worry about.

We chat to Dutch pro sailor Arienne van de Loosdrecht who was a member of the the Wind Whisperer team which won leg 1 of the Volvo 65 class into Cape Verde. We recorded as the boats were creeping into the finish at Cape Town. It is a particularly interesting episode if you are a young sailor trying to make it as a pro.

We chat to Scott Shawyer the principal behind Canada Ocean Racing. One thing we love is showing pathways, so we wanted to get in early and start chatting to a new team wanting to challenge in the IMOCA World. Scott is a lifelong sailor, skier, and adventurer (he's trekked to the North Pole), and a successful businessman and he brings an Engineers mind to the process. We are going to follow his journey and we thought you might enjoy coming with us.
Plus Cup and Ocean Race news.
