Good Jibes with Latitude 38

This week's host, John Arndt, is joined by returning guest Stephen Wolf to chat more tales from his 10-year, 40,000-mile circumnavigation on the 24-ft trimaran "No Name" back in the '70s.

Hear the scariest places and encounters he experienced on the water, how he and his wife Margo stayed safe on a "beach toy" of a boat, stories of battling wind, waves, lightning, fireballs, and killer whales, how they kept their entire cargo to less than 1,000 lbs, and how they managed to navigate without the tools at our fingertips today.
