| 0:00.0 | Hey guys, it's August here. Just wanted to let you know that we have just published the |
| 0:06.0 | 2024 sailing calendar for East Beyond. That's our Norwegian S&S, 148. I'm very excited about it. It's got |
| 0:14.8 | big ocean passages, fuel cruising, offshore racing and even some skiing in there. |
| 0:22.5 | So if you would like to join me on any of that, go to 59-nort.com slash 2024 |
| 0:30.7 | and scroll all the way down to find the latest East Beyond trips. |
| 0:36.2 | Hope to see you on board. On the Wind is presented by |

| 1:29.1 | Athletic Greens is going to give you a free one-year supply of immune-supporting vitamin D |
| 1:34.3 | and five free travel packs with your first purchase of AG1. All you have to do is visit |
| 1:40.2 | athletic greens.com slash on the wind. This season of On the Wind is presented in part by |
| 1:47.1 | Broadreach. Mottzmuller, the owner of Broadreach, was interviewed for the podcast last season by |
| 1:53.5 | Andy, and Andy, Mia, and I have all worked for Broadreach now. I was a skipper for them last summer, |
