Creator's Key Takeaways

i was just not willing to take this guy's bs anymore and i looked straight at him and i said say it again say it again buddy do you think i'm all of a sudden gonna understand what you mean just if you keep repeating it

i took over duties at the helm and found it to be thrilling and terrifying at the same time

the sea was the roughest we had had the wind was gusty and strong and to stay on course we had to steer against the pattern of the waves which made for a really rocky ride

YouTube Video Descriptionโ†“

While sailing around the Greek Islands in September/October of 2021, I had some choice words for our captain, who did not excel at delegating responsibilities or explaining procedures. We had rough seas and rough attitudes on the way to Paros! #sailing #greece #sailboat Get my NEW BOOK!
