Summary
#411: If you've been around this podcast for awhile, Matt Rutherford won't be a stranger to you. Famous for being the first person to sail solo & non-stop around the Americas, he's now the operator/co-director of the non-profit organization, OCEAN RESEARCH PROJECT, and has his own, amazing podcast called SINGLE-HANDED SAILING. Andy met up with Matt yet again, and their conversation meanders from high-latitude sailing and crew management, to weed and psychedelics.
