Just sharing the good news...
Thanks as always to our How Not To Sail Patreon Crew...! Your support (as you can imagine) is more important than ever right now.

Wherein I decide I need to do something to save the boat, and...maybe it's not gonna work out.
Show Notes The Latest on Jacie SailsSadly, no news is…no news. There have been no confirmed sightings. However, I will post updates whenever there are any to hownottosail.com/update. (That link will always point to the page with the latest info.)
Atlanta Meetup This SaturdayOkay, the Atlanta meetup will be this Saturday, from 1-3pm ET at:

Atlanta, GA 30341
(770) 234-0057Everybody is invited. Special swag for Patrons. And something for everybody. Bring a friend…hey, I’m not buying!
Help Keep How Not To Sail AfloatAs I said in the midroll, How Not To Sail ain’t going anywhere any time soon. But obviously the work is gonna be even more challenging. So if you want to help keep the podcast on the air, you can do that for as little as $3 a month. I appreciate ya!
Thanks to Able Seaman Dave from the Dumbing It Down With Dave podcast…and (breaking news!) our newest-minted Sailing Master Tal! (Who just leveled up from Boatswain: not necessary, but much appreciated, Cap’n!)
And wait…wait! Just now: also a big thanks to our newest Boatswain Steve!
Thank You, USCG!Speaking of appreciation, I want to take a minute to thank the awesome folks who serve in the United States Coast Guard. It is they who have given me the confidence to sail around South Florida this last decade.
We’ll be hearing from a couple of the crew probably in the next episode (unless this is a three-parter…I’m not sure yet); but meanwhile, a special thanks to:
BM2 Ethan Kast (OOD)
BM2 Anthony Diggle (Boarding Officer)
BM3 Billy Stone (Coxswain)
BM3 Gianna Bracone (Boarding Officer/ Navigator)
FN Reilly McCarthy (Engineer)Also, a shout out to Petty Officer Nicholas Strasburg in Public Relations, for allowing me to interview BM2 Anthony Diggle and BM2 Ethan Kast. Thank you!
Were you a Patron at the Annapolis meetup? Send me your address!If you’re a Patron who was at the Annapolis meetup while I was out looking for my vessel a couple of weeks ago, please email me your mailing address (at [email protected] or via the contact page, so I can send you your t-shirt.
All Episodes Now On YouTubeSo, besides optimizing the RSS feed, I’ve caught up all the episodes on the How Not To Sail YouTube channel. (I think!)
Unless I’m having a senior moment, all future episodes will automatically be posted to YouTube as audio with a static image. But if I have an episode where there’s video content as well, of course I’ll post that one. It’s like Forrest Gump’s box of chocolates. And of course, I may have some video-only content on YouTube, like the live update I did recently.

Wherein I have another senior moment about how long it takes to get somewhere in a sailboat; learn a How Not To Sail 101 lesson about using my eyes; and I may or may not have bumped into the dock in Bradenton. With good reason. With me are “The Admiral” and Jay Elmore, who provides the color commentary.

In this episode, we finally get the boat out of the marina, have a bizarre interaction at a drawbridge, worry about a loose alternator belt, wonder if there's any oil in the engine...and maybe go aground in the Intracoastal Waterway (ICW).

Big fun (can you hear the sarcasm?) with a required 10-year survey. Who knew there were so many things wrong with my boat?
Wanna help spread the gospel of How Not To Sail? Here's a link with a few suggestions, most of which cost nothing. Zero. Zilch. Nada.

Show Notes Why these DINGHY Awards™?Glad you asked.
As I mentioned in Ep. 51, I was racking my brain to figure out which bucket of haphazardly-organized audio source material I should turn into the fifty-first episode…when suddenly it hit me:
Hey, I’ve done a s— ton of work to birth these first fifty episodes. As we get into a new year with bright prospects, why don’t we celebrate a little?
And once I got going on it, it really got the creative audio juices flowing.
Why not make it sound like a real awards show like the GRAMMYs®, I thought?
…so I got into my REAPER audio software and got cookin’…
I even made some wax-sealed envelopes—not just for our two other presenters, but for me.What can I say? That’s just how I roll sometimes.
How did I select the winners?In short…I didn’t.
Here’s how the winners were selected:
You voted. I counted ’em.(Of course, the “accounting firm of Dewey, Cheatham & Howe” is—hopefully—fictitious, and the “Special Merit Awards” are just great excuses to recognize cool people. But in those four categories nominated in Episode 51, it’s very simple. You voted, I counted. And THANK YOU for voting!)
The results should be visible later today at the above link. (I *think* I set them to become visible by 12:30, right after the premiere…but who knows?)
Sondra and Jimmy’s BlogI mentioned in the podcast about Sondra’s blog about their current journey….which is totally making me jealous!
