Mark Sinclair // Captain Coconut Around the World

from On the Wind Sailing Hosted by 59º North Sailing

Mark Sinclair returns to the podcast, live from FALKEN's cockpit in Nuku Hiva!

Mark is midway through his fourth circumnavigation attempt since the first GGR in 2018, this time following the Mini Globe Race fleet. We covered a lot of ground in this one, from Mark's career and philosophy to sailing to GGR founder Don McIntyre and more! -- This season of ON THE WIND is sponsored by Weather Routing Inc., aka 'WRI', 59º North's longtime weather routing & forecasting friends.
