A podcast made by an everyday sailor and recreational kayaker — we talk daysailing, racing, cruising, boat shopping, boat projects — and everything in between! Initially a sailing podcast, I’m pleased to announce my show’s content now includes topics covering other activities out on the water — kayaking, fishing, surfing, kiteboarding, free diving — you name it! Got an idea for a show? Reach out to me — I always love hearing from my listeners!

For decades, Com-Pac Yachts provided sailors with a phenomenal line-up of sailing yachts — many of which were designed for trailer sailing. In this episode, I’m joined by veteran sailor and author Skipper Al Santini; Al has been sailing since 1973! Al has owned nine sailboats over his lifetime, but he particularly fell in love with Com-Pac sailboats and shares his thoughts — as well as some adventure sailing stories — about having owned both a Com-Pac Eclipse sloop and a Com-Pac Horizon Cat gaff-rigged sailboat. Skipper Al is also an accomplished author having published several technical books, and he’s also written a sailing fiction book series focusing on the adventures of his character, Captain Pete. This episode is packed with plenty of helpful Com-Pac golden nuggets, but it will also appeal to all sailors alike with Al sharing his wealth of knowledge and experience learned from years of adventuring out on the water!
PLEASE BE KIND — I’m no expert — I’m just a regular gal learning as I go! Also, I don’t have a huge budget dedicated to equipment and/or other resources for recording audio — but, I put lots of love and time into creating these podcasts in the hopes that sharing what I learn might help you!
Did you know that I blog regularly/create videos about adventures out on the water and other life-happenings? Come raft up with me at https://passagesfromtheheart.wordpress.com/ and https://www.youtube.com/@passagesfromtheheart
