what's new?
October 2, 2012: ANNAPOLIS BOAT SHOW! Check out Episode #2 of the 'Two Inspired Guys' podcast with Matt Rutherford, the solo sailor who is currently working on his next series of expeditions with his newly minted, available on ! In the meantime, check out! Episode #1 with Richard Rees and Claire Harris of Wild Spirit Bushcraft & Dog-sledding in Sweden. And come say hi to Mia and I from 12-4pm at the booth this week in tent O-18!
I also have one more thing to say about advertisers on our website. What you see at the top right - the podcast logo, One Simple Question and the Ocean Research Project - are all things I'm working on personally and promoting. I've moved the ads down the page, but they are still things I support fully and think you should too.

andy's resume / cv
My wife Maria Karlsson and I work as a
team. Together we have a combined 40,000 miles of bluewater experience, and
several seasons of leadership experience teaching liveaboard sailing programs
as well as celestial navigation courses. Maria is also a professional photographer
and I’m a yacht rigger and a writer/editor/web designer. Our sailing skills,
leadership experience and recognition internationally in top yachting media
outlets make us an ideal fit to support Matt Rutherford in his upcoming
expeditions.
