This week's host, Ryan Foland, is joined by Captain Donald Lawson to chat the planning and preparation needed to break some of the most difficult sailing records in the world. Donald is Chairperson of US Sailing's Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Committee and is currently the owner of trimaran Mighty Merloe - on which he’s setting sail to break a number of solo course records. Hear how to practice your sailing craft, turn difficult passages into enjoyable ones, what you have to do to be considered one of the best, French vs. U.S. sailing culture, and how to choose your own weather on the water.
