In this episode we catch up with Marissa and Chris Neely from Sailing Avocet, a well known cruising couple from the west coast who have a great blog and YouTube presence.

Then we talk to Cody from Chesapeake Light Craft about boat designs and how you can build your own boat from one of their kits, or even attend a workshop event in their shop.

We get to chat with Tyler and Carrie Andrews from Flying Scot Incorporated. The Flying Scot is a Maryland original one design racer and daysailor that has been produced in the same Deep Creek area shop since the late 1950’s and has a robust following with fleets all around the world.

We visit with Karla from Good Old Boat Magazine, a sailing rag I’ve subscribed to for years and always has great content for the Workaday Sailor in all of us.

Finally we sit down for after lunch Yuenglings with Paul and Sheryl Shard from Distant Shores who tell us all about selling and shipping Distant Shores 3 while locked down in Panama, and what they’ve been up to with helping design their next boat, Distant Shores 4, an aluminum expedition yacht with builder KM yachts from the Netherlands.
