Show Notes
This week's host, Nicki Bennett, is joined by returning guest Ronnie Simpson to chat his preparation and campaign for the 2023-2024 Global Solo Challenge. Ronnie is an Iraq war veteran who discovered sailing after being wounded and has since sailed well over 100,000 miles. Hear how to prepare to sail around the world, find sponsors, how he found his boat Sparrow (hint: Good Jibes played a part!), the helpful gear he's getting together, and the things you need to move around in life to make opportunities like this a reality.
