It’s Time for Good Jibes With Marissa and Chris Neely

Welcome back to Good Jibes! In this week’s episode, host Ryan Foland is joined by Marissa and Chris Neely to chat about living and working on your boat while knocking out endless boat projects.

Hear their thoughts on what holds us back from what we love to do, what they’ve learned over four years of rebuilding Avocet, why you shouldn’t be afraid to change plans, their favorite type of sailing content, and their goldfish-turned-cat, Cleo.
