<p>Wherein I engage in a pre-Milton Diesel Scavenger Hunt™, suffer an unpleasant evening, and finally run out of a critical item.</p> <h1 class="wp-block-heading">Show Notes</h1> <p>I don’t really have many—okay, any—photos from this episode, since I was, first of all, running around Venice and Sarasota like a madman, trying to find diesel and something to put it in; and after that it was as very long night and following morning.</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">New for Patrons: Original Episode Scripts and Notes!</h2> <p>Just FYI, I am now adding another perk for Patrons: Scripts from my wacky and detailed episode prep. (Okay, fine. Maybe it’s more like sadism. But hey, some folks seem to like it. The scripts, I mean.)</p> <p>Episode 66 involved many iterations, so I decided I should upload the salient bits to Patreon. Where I noticed there’s now a “Collections” area. So I thought to my alleged self, “Self, we should make a Scripts collection here!”</p> <p>And that’s exactly what I’m doing. I also uploaded scripts for Eps. 1, 5, and 6 (they will bubble up over the next few days), and aim to upload as many of the prior scripts as are available..as well as future ones…along with my various scribblings, comments, and edit/mix notes.</p> <p>If you wanna join the Patreon Crew, <a href= "https://patreon.com/hownottosail">HERE’S THE LINK</a>.</p> <p>In case yer not into the Patreon thing, I’ll also be making the “Scripts” collection available separately for purchase by curious HowNotToSailers for about the price of an adult beverage, once I get enough of ’em in the Collection. (Hey, it ain’t cheap owning a floating saltwater collector!)</p> <p>What could possibly go wrong?</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Lees Are Killing Me (Check out Sondra’s blog!)</h2> <p>I mean, in a good way. LOL. No, seriously…Jimmy and Sondra have been doing exactly what I want to be doing—namely, cruising!</p> <p>You may remember the Lees and s/v Utopia from Episode 34, “Not Always Utopia”…which is actually still one of the best podcast episodes.</p> <p>They have been “well seasoned” and have planned, prepared and sacrificed to get to this point, and I couldn’t be happier for them. Well played!!!</p> <p>If you want to see what awesome things they’re up to (or returning from) now (think “Bahamas”) just check out their blog, <a href="https://sondrawinter.wixsite.com/in-the-lee">In The Lee</a>. 🙂</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Thanks to the United States Coast Guard</h2> <p>So…we finally get a little more familiar with our Coastie friends in this episode, particularly BM2 Anthony Diggle. And there’s more to come in the next episode, as you can tell from the teaser at the end.</p> <p>I was tickled stinkless to get official permission to interview Anthony, and also BM2 Ethan Kast, while I was in Key West…and, um, also rather chagrined that as of yet, I haven’t been able to include any of Ethan’s audio in the podcast. :-/</p> <p>But, well, first of all… I hope we can bring in some of Ethan’s audio a couple of episodes from now. (After all, he was an integral part of events you’re about to hear.)</p> <p>But also, I’m going to make all of Ethan (and Anthony)’s interview audio available for the Patreon Crew. Minus, perhaps, some of the shuffling around we did to avoid audio contamination from roosters, children, and/or airplanes. (You wouldn’t believe how many roosters there are in Key West, unless you’ve been there.)</p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Thanks, Jim!</h2> <p>Special thanks to Our Friend Jim, who…well, since we’re still in the “Losing Jacie Sails” part of the program, has been doing important things for How Not To Sail.</p> <hr /> <p><strong>Patreon</strong></p> <p>Yes, you can <a href="https://hownottosail.com/Patreon">join the Patreon crew</a> and help keep How Not To Sail afloat (plus get way cool perks) for as little as $3 a month.</p> <p><strong>Help Spread The Word!</strong></p> <p>Looking for a way to help spread the gospel of How Not To Sail?
