Offshore Sailing Lessons & Debriefs
A discussion with two former Morse Alpha students who recently completed offshore passages. One Pacific crossing aboard an Oyster 43, and one spicy trip North from the Caribbean aboard a Vancouver 36. A candid discussion about weather, gear, boats, staying mentally strong, storms, communication, scrums/musters, and the zen of ocean sailing.

We’ve tested both aboard Rocinante, when we were doing emergency preparedness drills. They were easy to store and deploy, and super stout. And, Fiorentino is offering discount if you mention the Morning Muster Podcast.
