This week's host, Ryan Foland, is joined by fellow Good Jibes host Nicki Bennett to chat taking the plunge on your first boat and finding peace in the sailing community. Nicki is the Sales and Marketing Specialist at Latitude 38. She grew up sailing to the Channel Islands on the weekends with her best friend's family, and always dreamed of coming back to it. She joined Latitude 38 in 2020 and fulfilled a lifelong dream of owning her own boat. Hear how to find the right boat for you, captain your own boat, get comfortable with change, her favorite moments and lessons from hosting Good Jibes, and the things she's learned from just getting on the water.
