The Race to Alaska will hold its 8th edition in 2024, continuing with its 750-mile course from Port Townsend, WA to Ketchikan, AK. And now there is a podcast series prior to the June 9 start. This episode highlights two teams, both alike with their reckless grace and bold choices:
Team Wicked Wily Wildcat
The catboat is a staple of New England day sailing and cocktail hour, but its pilot Adam Cove believes there’s more under the hood than that. Veteran R2AK-er Jen chatted with Adam recently and asked Adam about his plans.
Team Guardian Sailing
Michael Tieman conceived Guardian Sailing during a deployment to Afghanistan and is on a mission to heal trauma, PTSD, and soul wounds through the best teacher we know: the sea. Listen up as Race Boss Jesse caught up with Michael and crew.
