Good Jibes #155: Cindy and Doug Schmitz on Learning a Li’l Sumpin’

This week’s host, Ryan Foland, is joined by Cindy and Doug Schmitz to chat about how there’s always sumpin’ to learn on the water. Cindy and Doug are members of the Blue Water Cruising Club, and spend time at Big Geiger Cove on Catalina Island.
