“Listened to every episode, but that all came to a halt at Cringeworthy Episode #68. It should be retitled On the Water With A Xenophobic and Entitled American. Linus Wilson jumps right into a diatribe hating on Aussies and the Chinese. At one point in his story, I half expected him to say to the...”Read full review »

“While some episodes of the podcast do provide helpful tidbits and perspective on the cruising lifestyle, they end up being completely overshadowed by the episodes in which Linus rants for the entirety about not being given preferential treatment which, from the sounds of his almost unhinged,...”Read full review »

“Linus, give great practical details along descriptions of the many legs of his sail from Louisiana to the South Pacific. Including, crossings, anchorages, land/island points of interest.”

“Man, I so badly wanted to like this podcast. I really did. There’s a lot of great subject matter and a few fantastic guests, but Linus (who sounds like a nice enough guy) lacks the ability to engage guests and audience. Just when he finds his stride, eliciting some interesting storytelling, he...”Read full review »

“Linus has a really comatose delivery which even worse when you see him on video. Whatever audio equipment he's using must be from the 1980s. To top it all off, he is weirdly obsessed with the two women sailors who were rescued in the Pacific by the coast guard in 2017. No one cares about...”Read full review »

“As an avid podcast listener and sailing enthusiast this experience was very disappointing. The host has weak interview skills poor questions and talks about himself every chance he gets rather his guests. This self centered focus is a parent from the beginning, rather than adding value the...”Read full review »

“The Podcast titles are equivalent of click bait, takes 20 min of slow ranting to get into actual subject, then it's a big let down. More entertaining watching barnacles grow.
Poor quality audio, fragmented volumes, doesn't even listen to interviewees answers. Even managed to make a story of...”Read full review »

“Some of the shows have been interesting but you have to endure many minutes of self advertising and begging for donations. Work on improving the show and don't expect to make much off a podcast that is new and learning. Keep working at it, good luck.”Read full review »

“I really try hard to listen to these but the first 15 minutes is Linus complaining that he doesn't make enough money off podcasts and trying to promote his book with complicated offers. Nothing is free, I get it but podcasting is not a money maker and begging doesn't work either. Make...”Read full review »

“I really want to like this podcast. It just doesn't seem like the host cares about creating a high quality product for his guests or their fans. He seems more interested in selling ebooks and acquiring Patreon supporters than creating good content. Linus has been able to get some very...”Read full review »

“Podcast with lots of good pre-passage information. Linus is making a great work in sharing his quest of information for his trip around the world. Inspiring. Audio quality especially with interview over the phone is not that great and request careful listening (at least for me) to get all the...”Read full review »

“I've been seeing Linus on Facebook in various cruising groups, and decided to check out the podcast. It's been *very* helpful, as has Linus himself—particularly regarding cruising to Cuba and the Bahamas. I highly recommend the podcast (and book(s)) for cruisers, would-be cruisers,...”Read full review »

“As almost liveaboards looking to start our own journey cruising the world on our Niagara 35, we love to hear stories, lessons and insights from other sailors already out there living the dream. Thank you Linus, for what are you putting together and sharing with us.”

“This podcast is only meant to sell you a book about sailing around the world. This is a thing that the author has not done. He has had his hand out for money since day one, all without delivering any good content. When he interviews guests, he always one-ups everything they say. He talks like he...”Read full review »

“I am sorry to have to agree with a previous review but Linus could benefit from a couple cups of coffee prior to showtime. Perk up. Engage your guests. Stop talking about us supporting you financially until you have some proven content that we can support. I bought your book (part/time...”Read full review »
