    I am so grateful for this episode, as someone who has gone through all the ASA courses in the States and has watched thousands of hours of sailing videos, I still am not out there sailing. And Japan is my ideal destination, what a gift to have seen this. 💕🙏💕

    Yes (never too late).
    Great interview!
    It was nice to get to know Kirk, who has also given me some pointers in my efforts to get started sailing in Japan (at age 59).
    Thanks to you both.

    Yes (Never Too Late). I enjoy your videos - they have a different perspective than typical sailing channels of millennials having kids ;). I'm looking forward to the actual crossing.

    that FPB was designed bby the legendary steve dashew. since his retirement companies like arksen in the UK are manufacturing very similar vessels. their 85 is amazing and while it is $13M new, it has a 7000 nautical mile range. perfect for exploring the pacific.
