This week's host, John Arndt, is joined by one of the great legends of the sailing world, Commodore Tompkins. The 93-year-old Commodore has sailed over 600,000 miles and has essentially been sailing since birth. In this Part 2 - recorded in-person on Commodore's custom Wylie 39, Flashgirl - you'll hear his most memorable stories from racing & cruising around the world, the time he got featured in Sports Illustrated, the spicy origin of his boat name, how he studies the weather on a daily basis, and the impressive 11-year-old kid who made an impact on his sailing life.
