In this sample audio clip, Jim Brown speaks to multihull sailor and windsurfer Bruce Matlack. This short mp3 features a portion of the entire interview, where Bruce shares some great stories out of his experiences and life around boats.
Imagine sitting back with a cold beer and swapping some tales with a great sailing buddy. Well, that guy could be Bruce :-)
Multihull pioneer Jim Brown speaks to longtime sailor, survival expert, author and speaker Steven Callahan. Among the topics Jim discusses with Steve in the full recording are how Steve got into sailing, the experience of surviving at sea after disaster strikes, and a sailing trip that Steve took with Jim's son Russell to the island of Tahiti aboard Russell's proa, which is named Jezerro.
Steve is the author of many works, including the NY Times best-seller, "Adrift: Seventy-six Days Lost at Sea" which you can read more about at http://www.stevencallahan.net

In this sample audio clip, Jim interviews Lyles Forbes, who is the chief curator at the Mariners’ Museum, in Newport News, Virginia. This short mp3 features a portion of the entire interview, where Lyles shares here about an exhibition that is (at the time of this recording) about to be opened at the museum, which offers some incredible stories of survival after the sailors had to abandon ship at sea.
During the entire interview, Jim and Lyles discuss the history of multihulls and the collection of multihull history that the Mariners’ Museum has been able to gather together thus far. (As you’ll hear, they’ve even been able to refer to it in order to help self-boatbuilders in recent years).
If you’re wondering whether or not this audio might be worthwhile, let me say that if the idea of being tossed around in 70-foot seas blows your mind, then you definitely want to check it out. :-)
