Clint Wells RECYCLED // Sailing Newbie

#189: Clint Wells is one of my best friends, and Isbjorn's first mate when Mia can't make a passage. He was there when I first met Mia in New Zealand, and he sailed across the Atlantic with us on Arcturus back in 2011. Clint is NOT a sailor - or at least wasn't, until joining us. I spoke to him a few years back about our Atlantic crossing together and the challenges he faced - both physically, and even more so mentally - as a new-to-sailing crew member stuck on a 35-foot boat for 23 days in the North Atlantic. For those of you new to ocean sailing, Clint has some words of wisdom. -- On the Wind is sponsored by Weems & Plath.
