From the team behind Practical Boat Owner, Yachting Monthly, and Yachting World comes a new sailing podcast, simply named: The Sailing Podcast.

But all you really need to know is, if you’re into sailing in any way, The Sailing Podcast is a must-listen. Subscribe today and make sure you never miss an episode.

Picture this: It’s a dark, wet evening in Salcombe. A massive 40-foot cruising yacht pulls up to the pontoon, and the skipper is screaming at his terrified teenage kids because they cleated a line wrong. The holiday is ruined, the crew is miserable, and the skipper is utterly disappointed in himself. How do we avoid becoming that grumpy, overwhelmed dad?

Welcome to The Sailing Podcast, sponsored by Sunsail. This week host, Theo Stocker and his guest. Justin Morton talk about what it actually takes to be a great skipper.

The pair dive deep into ‘unequal sailing partnerships,’ the psychological difference between real danger and perceived fear, and why cutting a long-planned cruise short might be the ultimate sign of a successful voyage.
