Episode 25 of The Sailing Podcast is with Canadian Mike Sweeney who is sailing in the Caribbean with his wife Rebecca. During the interview we hear how they literally went from Zero sailing experience to now having spent over 2 and a half years living aboard their catamaran 'ZerotoCruising'. They are currently in the Caribbean and blog regularly about their journey at www.zerotocruising.com.

There are quite a few other interesting topics covered:

- Mike talks about selling up and going sailing

- We hear about Rebecca's website, www.strengthplus.ca

- Mike covers getting his Yachtmaster certification

- we have a look at the resources available on www.zerotocruising.com

- the TRX Suspension Trainer and how it works great on a yacht
