No, I mean, I think, you know, in retrospect, obviously it's a great lesson that even, you know, you're in the middle of the Atlantic or wherever you are in the Middle Pacific, and you don't see, you know, ships for days and days, you still have to keep a very vigilant watch.

Hey, this is Anna Viner's live from Sweden.

Welcome back to the 59 North Sailing podcast with your host, Andy Schell. Enjoy the show.

Good morning and welcome back to 59 degrees north, a podcast about sailing.

I'm your host, Andy Schell, and this is episode number 108.

Big thanks to our returning sponsors, Weems and Plath.

So thanks again to Weems and Plath.

All right, first episode in a while where I am back in real time.

I'm recording this intro on Saturday, June 20th, right before the

Delmarva rally in Annapolis. And since I last had an intro on here, I've had a few changes

to the schedule for East Beer and Sailing for next year. My sister's getting married in Key West

next spring. She finally set a date, so we'll be doing a passage from BVI back to Key West via the Bahamas sometime in April.

And that will be posted very shortly. So check that out. That's going to be a good one. About

1,000 miles, mostly downwind. Stop off in the Bahamas in the out islands there for a swim and a little

explorer in the outer Bahamas. Yeah, can't talk today in the outer Bahamian

islands. So keep an eye out for that on Eastbearing.com or of course 59-north.com slash offshore.

Big thanks again to those of you that are sending donations, buying coffee, all that other stuff.

I appreciate it, I appreciate

the emails, keep them coming. I try to respond to all of them. I think I've been doing a pretty

good job of that. If I haven't responded to you yet, just be patient. All right, episode number
