EP- 80 Mark Tieszen Part 2 How Do I Get My 45-Foot Sailboat Off the Beach?

Our guest on today’s podcast is Mark Tieszen. Mark is an experienced sailor who has one sailboat on the Great Lakes and another in Florida. He shares with us how a coastal sail in Florida turned into a minor disaster as they hit bottom on the way into the harbor. The momentary grounding resulted in a jammed rudder and loss of steerage. They soon ended up washed ashore on the beach. What happened next was the really interesting part of the story. This is part two of our conversation, make sure you listen to part one and the beginning of this adventure. If you would like to support the podcast, we now have a Patreon page.
