What happens when the adventure of a lifetime ends, but you're not quite ready to return to ordinary life?

The Smith family of Sailing Telos set off to explore the world by sailboat, trading the comforts of land for life at sea, unforgettable destinations, and the kind of experiences that change a family forever.

In this episode of Three Sheets, Erik sits down with the crew of Sailing Telos to talk about their cruising adventures, the realities of raising a family aboard, and the unexpected challenges of transitioning back to life on land.

They thought leaving would be the hardest part. Turns out, coming home was a whole different adventure.

Grab a drink, settle in, and join the conversation! ⛵🍹

"A sailboater and a power boater walk into a bar..."
It sounds like the setup to a joke, but it was actually the start of an unforgettable Great Loop adventure.

In this episode, Erik & David talk with Karly and Evan of Navigating Nietzels to share what it was like buddy boating the Loop alongside Josh and Haley of @cruisincasa, the friendships they built along the way, and why that journey was only the beginning.

Matt Rutherford has already accomplished what few sailors would ever dare to attempt. He has circumnavigated the Americas twice, including navigating the treacherous waters of the Northwest Passage.

Now, he is taking on an unprecedented challenge: attempting the first-ever solo, nonstop and completely unassisted circumnavigation of the Arctic Ocean.

But this journey is about more than making history. Through his nonprofit, the Ocean Research Project, Matt is sailing in the name of science while raising awareness of the growing effects of climate change across the Arctic.

We caught up with him shortly after his departure from Greenland, just days into the expedition, to hear about the challenge ahead, the mission behind the voyage and what it takes to set out alone into one of the most unforgiving regions on Earth.
