Good Jibes #85: PJ Landresse on Finding Your Boat Relatives
This week’s host, Ryan Foland, is joined by PJ Landresse to chat finding your boat’s family tree — better yet, family “sea.” PJ and Ryan are “boat relatives” themselves, as Ryan’s 1977 Cal 34 Bingo was PJ’s Starpath in a previous life. PJ recorded this from his new boat in Banderas Bay, just north of Puerto Vallarta.
Hear about the adventures you’ll unlock by looking up previous owners of your boat, renovations over a boat’s lifetime, how to have fun and de-stress on the water, how canoes can teach you to become a better sailor, and PJ’s magical encounters with animals while cruising.
This episode covers everything from Sunfish to boat modifications. Here’s a small sample of what you will hear:
- How did PJ learn to sail on canoes?
- When did he visit Ryan in Catalina?
- How did PJ find out Ryan had bought his old boat?
- What are some good memories aboard Starpath and Bingo?
- How are things going with PJ’s new boat?
- Where has he explored on the West Coast?
- How long has he been a fan of Latitude 38?
- Where has he seen Richard Spindler?
