In this podcast episode, Bela Musits welcomes back Mike Malekoff, a returning guest. We previously followed Mike's voyage from Lake Champlain to the Bahamas and back to the USA. Initially, Mike kept his boat on Lake Champlain in Vermont, where the chilly waters and short sailing season posed unique challenges. Now, his boat resides in Southern Georgia, characterized by warm waters, hot and humid weather, and the occasional hurricane. Mike shares his firsthand experiences and the lessons he learned, some through challenging situations, about maintaining a boat in a warmer climate.
