Our guest in this episode is Andy Green of the 11th Hour Racing Ambassador Program, a community of professional sailors committed to ocean health. We chat with Andy about 11th Hour’s involvement in this year’s highest profile sailing events, what it’s like to go from competition to commentating and how we all can help change the world.
