Ben Doerr Returns // Sail Bainbridge

Ben Doerr, longtime friend of the pod and founder/skipper at Sail Bainbridge in Seattle, returns to the show to spin some yarns with Andy. This episode is really a catch-up between Ben & Andy, who haven't spoken in a while, and is a wide-ranging episode on everything from sailing & skiing in Alaska to being away from home when you've got a young family. We also briefly touched on Ben's new Sail2Run project in the San Juan Islands.
