I have listened to over 2 dozen episodes now and have learned so much. Great source of practical knowledge.

At sometime during the day, but never at sunset 😃, I make a mug of tea, and spend ten minutes listening to the Boat Galley podcast by Carolyn Shearlock. You can of course substitute the beverage of your choice but never substitute another podcast for the Boat Galley. As proud owner I have to...Read full review »

These experienced cruisers tackle super practical topics that go beyond sail trim and daydreaming about your next location. Yes, sometimes the sound isn’t great and production could use improvement but the wisdom provided is well worth it.

Even with a short format, it seems the hosts struggle to find sufficient content. Sometimes it seems poorly conceived, and more often poorly executed. Carolyn’s sound quality is simply atrocious. I think I originally began listening before practical tips and tricks were replaced by amorphous...Read full review »

This is a fantasy ‘down to earth’ podcast for people that enjoy sailing and cruising. I really enjoy listen to real people that tell it the way it is. I’m over listening to the so called experts in our marina that never seem to leave their slip. Yet they apparently have all the best advise on...Read full review »

I enjoyed Lin’s talk on storms and the anticipation being scarier than the actual storm. Lin and Larry have always been an advocate of getting out in stronger winds and getting used to your equipment and practicing what to do when the weather is less than perfect. Time for a refresher myself....Read full review »

I loved your Boat Bed Challenges Post! My husband and I are boat-less right now saving for our blue water sail away boat and your description of making a boat bed while on the mattress you are trying to make up brings back so many vivid memories! Thanks for the link to Quahog Bay Bedding and our...Read full review »

I download and listen to almost every podcast but just a little constructive criticism.... the music comes across much louder than the voices. It is annoying to have to continually adjust the volume during the opening minutes. Is there a way you can balance this?

Although all the topics I find (as a future cruiser) to be extremely interesting, it is somewhat painful to listen to. The presenters start out with animation and sound like it’s a topic they know plenty about but then it inevitably turns into a long running sentence with no pauses or change in...Read full review »

May be informative, but the host talks a million miles an hour and the audio is poor, thus compounding the problem.

I have been back an forth about purchasing a boat so when I saw they have an episode on boat buying it was a perfect starter for me. I thought it was a great simple short and sweet overview of things to look for and places to look for them when considering buying a boat.

Very helpful practical advice, especially for new potential cruisers

I'm an amateure -- just getting started in sailing but i'm from the east coast and grew up by the water. While I've gone sailing I'm not a sailor. Now that I"m middle age I'm just exploring getting into it. I LOVE this podcast. I felt like I was on the water with an expert...Read full review »

Carolyn is the best!!! She makes a life people dream about something that seems in reach. My family loves her approach to sailing and life.

Terrific talk on how a smaller boat can be perfect for a couple or family with smaller kids! Well done, Nica!! Look forward to listening to more of your podcasts!
Sailergal via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/07/18
I loved this from Nica! I look forward to more, and though I follow and go after TheBoatGalley's Tips and advice, I was unaware of the podcasts. Thanks Nica ! Yes is best !!! Healthy, inspiring advice !Thanks Carolyn. Excellent advice!Read full review »
