30 Seconds. That’s What a Lithium Fire Gives You.

On June 10th, 2024, SV Theros left Halifax bound for the Azores. Three days later, their AIS signal went dark 34 miles southwest of Sable Island. Four weeks after that, Parks Canada found the crew on the beach. They had washed ashore in their inflatable dinghy. The Transportation Safety Board conclu...

The tragic last 4 words of these sailors… #sailing #truestory #shorts

The tragic story of the Cheeky Rafiki. During a delivery from Antigua to the UK, a catastrophic structural failure caused the grid to rip the fiberglass hull apart. Without a keel, the boat capsized instantly, leaving the crew with no time to escape. These were their final four words. 📗 Book: #Ch...

The Secret Skeleton of Modern Sailboats

Most production boats from 35 to 55 feet share a hidden construction secret: the structural grid. Instead of building piece-by-piece inside the boat, manufacturers build an internal "skeleton" separately, install the interior systems, and then drop the entire unit into the hull.How It’s Ma...

Be The Captain — Chapter One: Think Like a Captain (Audiobook)

This is the introduction and first chapter of the Be The Captain audiobook, read by the author. Chapter 1 is called Think Like a Captain. It's not about sailing techniques or gear. It's about command, and the mindset that separates people who make good decisions offshore from people who d...

Why I Quit Delivering Sailboats #sailboat #sailing

40 knots. 150 miles offshore. Floorboards floating. Bilge pump dead. Batteries dying. This was the night I quit deliveries for good. Get my book for more.

The Night I Almost Lost the Keel (and Why I Quit Deliveries)

In 2014, I delivered a Beneteau First 47.7 from the Bahamas to Cartagena. Somewhere in the Caribbean, 150 miles offshore, I found myself ankle-deep in water, crew vacuuming the bilge in the dark, batteries dead, no GPS, no autopilot. I didn't know at the time how close we were to losing the kee...

CATAMARAN SNAPPED IN HALF

35-knot winds. 25-foot waves. And then, the boat started to snap. This is the story of the worst storm I’ve ever seen 100 miles offshore. On the very last night of the passage — the boat started tearing itself apart. Full story on the channel. #sailing #catamaran #pacificcrossing #survivalstory #b...

This Rope Killed Two Sailors

A tug's tow line snaps under the full weight of a barge — and it kills two people in an instant. Never, ever stand near a line that's under load. It doesn't matter if it's your boat or someone else's. Towing operations are one of the most dangerous things you can do on the w...

NO WAY!! A JACUZZI in the cockpit of this sailboat!?!?

I found something absolutely crazy in the cockpit of this 82-foot aluminum-hulled Tintella. It’s essentially a shell of a boat with no windows, no ports, and no hatches—yet it has a freaking jacuzzi built right into the deck! This is one of the strangest boat features I've ever seen.

One second. That is how close this sailor came to a fatal accident. When a boat is overpowered by the wind, things go wrong fast. #sailing #closecall #nearmiss #boatlife #survival #ocean #sailinglife #extremesports #scary #marinesafety #pointofnoreturn #heavyweather #sailingvessel #shorts

Watch this sailboat SNAP their mast

Watching a wooden boat caught overpowered in a gale with full sails up. The mast bends under the massive pressure until it finally gives way. If you go offshore, you will eventually be overpowered—the key is learning to get those sails down safely before disaster strikes. #sailing #sailboat #offsh...

The #1 Rule of Weather Routing: Don’t Trust the Map

The map is not the territory. After 85,000 miles at sea, I’ve learned that a "pretty wind map" is just an opinion. Your job as Captain isn’t to find the perfect line—it’s to find the red flags the model might be hiding. This is a clip from our 5-part PredictWind Masterclass. 📘 Get the ful...
