Sailing Anarchy Podcast

We talk model boat racing with AMYA president Len Bose. He convinced me I have to get back to it, so I am ordering a new DF 95!

Charlie Enright, the new CEO of US Sailing, joined us today for a robust discussion of all things sailing, er, US Sailing! Engaging and bright, Charlie takes us down the often muddy road of US Sailing - where's it been, where it is, and where it wants to go! This is a fantastic interview, and I hope you enjoy it!

You say you'd like to win the Chicago Mackinac race? Well, maybe you didn't win that one, but how about the The Bayview to Mackinac race, which starts a week earlier. No? How about winning them both, in the same year? That's exactly what Bob Hughes, owner of the TP 52 Heartbreaker did this summer! Bob shares what those races were like and how they pulled off the double. Enjoy!

Today, we talk with Quantum San Diego's Eric Heim, who just helped drive the Cal 40 Restless to both its class and Overall win in the just-completed 2025 Transpac. A great story with plenty of good stuff. And apologies - like an idiot, I hit the wrong button and the last couple minutes didn't record!

No description provided.

Today, Tempesta whines about the fact that he can't get crew - waa! Dude nobody wants to sail with an old man on an old boat. Reality bites! And so does he!

I had the chance to sail in the uber-competitive SDYC J/22 Beercan Series last night and man, was that fun, and humbling! 20 teams sailed in two flights - silver and gold - we were in silver of course, but had a couple nice finishes and a couple I'd rather not talk about, but I will. Listen!

So for all the nonsense your editor here has spewed about his beater Hobie 33, it finally came time to deliver. And if you know Tempesta, you know that he rarely delivers, and his first race on said Hobie 33 was this past Saturday. We'll let him try to talk his way out of fth in class and 19th overall. This oughta be good!
