TRAINING TO AVOID DANGER ON A PERFORMANCE CATAMARAN
This video could change how you sail! Olympians, World Champions, Hall of Famers! We have got some VERY cool friends. When we met out at a deserted island years ago, little did we know that Annie Gardner and Eric Witte on the Catana 472, El Gato were such accomplished sailors. This week, we soak up words of wisdom and best practices to sail a performance cat safely and efficiently. We got a lot of water to cover. Also featured are a couple very accomplished sailors, Markus Moser and Shayne Young, which we will hear more from in a coming video. Als, we catch up with our good friend Pat Schulte of Bumfuzzle!
If you’d like to go sailing with the pros, contact Annie Gardner and Eric Witte of El Gato, Wind Goddess Retreats, and Trade Winds Adventures at [email protected]

LIVE ON THE MARGIN is about making money on the go trading stocks and options. I co-wrote it with Pat Schulte of Bumfuzzle. People seem to like that one too. All proceeds donated to our boat.

The O'Kelly's
We've been together for 30 years and have had three monohulls and one catamaran (Clarity) over the past 20 years. We FINALLY found our next boat and are so excited to share it with you in 2023! If you want behind the scenes/real time updates we'd love to have you join our incredible community of like minded "doers" on Patreon. We literally couldn't make these videos without the support of our community! If you're considering the cruising life, we offer 1:1 consulting over Zoom so check out www.sailclarity.com/consulting if you're interested. It's a privilege to be able to share it with you all so THANK YOU to all of you who make it happen! Nick is a meteorologist and pilot, so we may be talking a bit about that as it relates to sailing. Megan was in high tech recruiting and has been a life long seamstress - see her channel below. We have a couple other channels: O'Kelly Tech and our philosophical, meditative meanderings - MONKEYS ON A ROCK - see below.
