Collaborations

Notable episodes
Sailing hasn’t been an easy feat for James, especially in an older boat and has had some incidents along the way.
His worst experience was getting stranded 1,000 miles from shore due to losing his rudder. James has written a 258-page book about this which is worth reading: https://svtriteia.bigcartel.com
