The “pope” of Inverness Yacht Club

Great fun listening to the episode with Milly Biller about sailing and living all over the world, the community she’s built at Inverness Yacht Club, and sailing through a monarch butterfly migration in Mexico. A blast!

Great podcast for sailing.

Just introduced but I’m binging all of the episodes! Not a west coast sailor but still great to hear the stories and tips, both entertainment and education.

Good Jibes

I am full blown hooked! I find myself looking forward to crawling into my V-berth and listening to each episode at the end my day. Episode 1 is quite informative and welcoming. Nicki Bennett does a great job of getting the listener enthused. I highly recommend Good Jibes to new sailor and to the salty sailors.
