If you’ve ever dreamed of cutting the lines and running away on a sailboat Captain Ryan is the man to talk to. For a small fee, you can experience what REAL cruising is like aboard Libra, his 60′ center cockpit ketch. In relative safety you can experience what offshore passage making is REALLY like, and for a FRACTION of the price of buying your own yacht and fitting it out for offshore.

We sit him down to get his entire story, get a SUPER LESSON in centerboard boats, and see what makes him tick.

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 thing...

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

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-p...
