Captain Chrissy Lovitt, a local and seasoned mariner out of Lahaina Harbor, and her story of how she saved two 5- and 6-year-old children has spread all across the news. However, in this podcast, we wanted to go deeper and really understand what happened at the harbor and the rest of the town that day. This way, we can truly grasp an idea of what Lahaina is going through and how they are picking up the pieces today. Captain Chrissy herself is a significant part of the healing process. Not only is she housing several victims of the fire who lost their own homes, but she's also actively working to get another boat, so she can begin running much-needed supplies to her people. Let's hear this story in her own words.

Eric Bingham faced a massive rogue wave on the Gulf Stream that wrecked their ship and left them floating alone with nothing but ocean in any direction. This is the story of what might be only the second rogue wave ever documented and how two men fought to survive its aftermath.

Sitting in his Florida boatyard we discuss how the Rybovich family business got started with a humble Austro-Hungary immigrant and grew to become one of the most coveted names in sportfishermen. 

So much has been written about the Rybovich family and their boats over the years, which made my recent trip to the Rybovich yard for a feature story that much more daunting. As a writer I love the challenge of profiling someone who’s been written about before. Maybe it’s a competition thing, or maybe it's the challenge of finding a new angle or the thrill of uncovering a gem of a story that others have missed; I had a feeling this would be a good one for the magazine, especially since Michael agreed to come on as one of our columnists over a year ago.  

Like many of you I’ve been thoroughly enjoying his sometimes controversial, always honest columns in the magazine. Through his writing I started to get the feeling that I actually knew him; I think that’s a skill that great writers possess. I hoped that meeting in person wouldn’t disappoint; luckily for me meeting Michael Rybovich reaffirmed what I thought I knew about him. That he was a hardworking, proud, old school, handshake-is-my-word kind of guy. And the stories he told, well, let’s just say I didn’t want this conversation to end. I hope you feel the same way when this episode concludes.
