Only problem is that there’s too much time between. Can’t wait months between shows to roll on the floor while learning what not to do.

I have been binging this show and I absolutely love it. I even bought the book! I just purchased a catamaran sailboat and will be a liveaboard with my husband and dog. My husband loves to watch the sailing channels out there to learn but I find them too serious and too much about perfection or...Read full review »

i’ve been listening to this nonstop at work. I feel like I’m right there with you and also now feeling weirdly motivated to learn how to sail…. It’s almost winter in Michigan but next summer I’ll be out on the lakes

More meat less fat. More story, less rote intro and exit. Feed me your wisdom, cause I am chocking on the production cheese.

By far one of the best podcast discoveries I’ve made! Thank you Capt’n, looking forward to listening to every new episode!

Amazing podcast for those who have a boat, want a boat or think they want a boat . Provides support for the emotional and financial rollercoaster of sailboat ownership. The podcast also reminds us of the beauty of sailing and how it is 100% worth it.

I listen to most of the sailing podcasts. I enjoy them all. But this is special. So smooth. Funny. Endearing. Thank you Bradford.

I love the humor and I love to listen to you enjoy the trails and tribulations, that makes sailing, a labor of love.

I wish I had listened to this BEFORE my boating adventure last summer! We might not have been homeless on our first night out! I love how the segments are arranged, the music, the catch phrases,... everything so far!
Crazy Math Lady via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/08/21
I really, really enjoy this podcast. Bradford does a great job highlighting the memorable points of sailing, making the rest of us sailors feel more normal. I look forward to each episode.

Great story telling and nice production. A great way to feel like you’re onboard even when you are stuck on land.

I love it, I have now listened to each one and I am looking forward to future episodes. I am planning on buying the book for my Kindle this afternoon. Keep up the great work! I also enjoy your tweets! Jeff Stockdale Jacksonville Florida

For a couple of years now I have had this ideology of casting off.always been fascinated with the lifestyle but lack any kind of experience. Worried a bit about starting out at 47 I took the leap, a Columbia 34 same age as me. After listening to your podcast for the first time it has set me a bit...Read full review »

Thank you, “Captain Billie”! I can’t get out on my boat, so thank you again for taking me out on yours .

Big fans of how not to sail, funny and true!
stephanie mistress of the west via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/03/20
We like Bradford! Bradford deserves 5 stars.
A Pirate and his Queen via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/30/20
Very entertaining and delightfully funny. Can’t wait for the next episode to drop. We sailed fulltime for 7 years and can relate with every episode!

I love This podcast! Always good for a laugh and helps remind me that even if it's not always rum punch at sunset, sailing is something that's always worth doing.Read full review »

If the trailer and my love of Bradford’s blog are any indication, this is going to be a great podcast! Intelligent people speaking clearly about interesting topics!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ And episode one drops and is a complete hit!! Hilarious and informative, I laughed out loud for real!

Stumbled upon this gem while wrapping Christmas presents. This is one of the best sailing podcast I’ve found. It’s in my top five, and surely to be in your favorites. Give it a try!
S/V Teaghlach via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/24/19
Whether you've been sailing or not, this podcast makes you want to get out on the water and experience what Bradford is talking about in his sailing adventures. The stories, music and interviews make it so much fun. The How Not to Sail book is great too! Love it!Read full review »

Nice job putting it together.
Jetmechcal via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/10/19
A lot of entertaining tales that ring very true to any boater. Bradford is a great storyteller.
Sgibson842 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/28/19
I am a wannabe sailor. Ive always enjoyed the novels and films of the sea (and maybe even the occasional sea chanty). And although Ive ridden many diff types of boats in my life, I ll probably never actually own one. Still, its nice to romanticise and fantasise about being a Cap'n of a little...Read full review »

Heard a recommendation so tuned it in. Very different format sort of polished but enjoying it so far. Keep ‘em coming.
NancyRC via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/03/19
great to listen to on the way to work! I have a problem with staying awake while driving but the way it’s in a story telling format really helps keep me entertained!
jenniferclark via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/21/19
I’ve been listening to sailing podcasts since the very first (Furled Sails), and I was immediately struck by the unique format of “How Not to Sail.” Where many podcast hosts initially struggle with audio quality, Bradford excels as a self-admitted audio engineer. “Radiolab” and its narrative...Read full review »

I found my favorite podcast! With just the right amount of humor and sailing stories, it’s a podcast all of us can relate to! Love it! Ralph Erickson

Really enjoying a different sailing podcast. Light hearted. Keep it going.
YangonGav via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 04/04/19
But Captain Suarez made me a bit uncomfortable with his Irish prison song in episode 2. The silky sounds of Brandford Rogers and Peter Suarez calmed me down. I’ve only listened to my second episode and I am already considering learning to sail. Heck I think I can destroy a sailboat as well as the...Read full review »

I am an avid podcast listener as well as a fan of Cruising Outpost / Latitudes & Attitudes. I really enjoy Bradford’s storytelling approach to podcasting. It is not the authority figure telling us how to do things, but rather it’s ‘telling story’. That’s what sailors refer to it as when they...Read full review »

He's a guy doing something most people can only dream of and here he is laughing and sharing it with you. Here he is sailing around the tip of florida to the Miami boat show and letting you know all the snags he hits. Episode one I was hooked after listening to Capt. Bitchin'. This is...Read full review »

Loving the podcast. Keep me coming. New to sailing. So looking forward to this one

I get to sail with my dad whenever I'm visiting in San Diego and I love to hear stories from people who actually know something or other about sailing. Seriously, I feel like I know Bradford forever listening to this podcast and can't wait to hear more.Read full review »

I met Bradford at Gulfport Municipal Marina when I came in from the gulf in my Cape Dory with a throttle cable broken from the engine control. I was below with my finger pushing the throttle mechanism. This humbling experience made me appreciate Bradford’s approach to sailing, or how not to...Read full review »

If you are a cruising sailor, landlocked sailor or wanna be a cruising sailor tune in and enjoy!
Glenn Heslop via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/18/19
Love that I found my old friend and diving buddy Bradford on a sailing subject! I just “adopted” a 1985 28.5 Hunter and since I haven’t sailed since leaving Atlanta in 2012 I need a bit of encouragement that I can do this again and do it on my own (no support from the guys at Lanier Sailing...Read full review »

Just what the boating community needs. Great story telling, hilarious anecdotes, and laugh out loud sarcasm. Absolutely worth a listen.
Siege44 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/07/19
Seriously, I really enjoyed the story telling aspect of this podcast. I loved hearing about the many adventures with the how not to sail embedded throughout. Very cool. Well done!!
Nu-Jazz Diva via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/07/19
I love these podcasts. They are presented with a little big sarcasm which I speak fluently but don’t let that fool you, there is a lot of knowledge that be gained by tuning in. I look forward to every episode.
