Today, Tempesta goes on and on about his GD Hobie 33.   He tells us that y'all love this sort of thing? 

It looks pretty good until you realize Danny Devito couldn't stand up inside. What the hell is he thinking? Oh that's right, that's not his strong suit.

He also briefly dives into the well-worn US SailGP team with lukewarm and predictable results. But wait, there's more...

In today's episode, Tempesta brings you all up to speed on the progress on his "Beater" Hobie 33. First, he goes way too long explaining the obscure and odd name he chose for the boat.

Then he goes on about the yard experience, and all the deets about what it takes to get this thing going. Here at SA, we say hurry the hell up and get on the race course, so that we can hear all about the races he didn't win. (He is likely busting out the excuse machine in anticipation...)

As always, enjoy!

Ice King Matty Struble joined us to take a bit of a deep dive into his ridiculously brilliant sailing career!

From Moths to Iceboats, Matt does a great job sharing how he does it.

Enjoy!

Surely one of the more fascinating designers with a great origin story that led him to design in six America's Cups! And that is only part of the story. I 14s, Moths, custom boats, etc.

Hope ya dig it!

Yeah, yeah, yeah - we know you've heard it before, but he did get something new (old). You may be surprised, and you might say "What a wanker", but listen up to hear the story. And yes, we know - there is always a story!

Today, your 'Hostess with the Mostest' welcomes Alex Camet as they talk about the year in review, and what is on the waters ahead.

It must be noted that thanks to The Host, this is the worst, most incomplete, inaccurate and quickly thrown together "Year In Review" ever.  We spent nearly the whole time talking about the AC, and whatever the hell it was that we discussed. Mazel tof!

Quarter million-mile man Brian Hancock joins us for some hilarious (and not-so-hilarious) tales from his previous around-the-world races on Drum with Simon LeBon, the very Russian Fugazi, and More.

We also talk about what is happening in the Vendee Globe, happening right now!

Finally, Tempesta drags his sorry, flabby ass to the microphone and sends some hate North Sails' way, Dishes on the failed Jules Verne Trophy, and he finally finds his boat!

Maybe now he can stop talking about it...

I did! I found another Columbia 30-2 for sale! Made an offer. Everything looked good. Until it wasn't.

I'm a loser. 

I have been looking for a very specific boat and model to purchase. And I found it! We struck a deal, I was excitedly going through the fun of naming it, and what graphics/paint colors to use, and picking the race schedule, and getting crew together and, and, and...

The deal got killed. The owners decided not to sell - boo! So I found a couple others. Join me in my misery...
