BMT 93: Plan a Sailing Trip Like a Pro with Costas Mantratzis

Laugh with us today as Costas and I get into how to plan a sailing trip. Costas is from Greece and has been putting together sailing trips with his friends for almost 20 years, he knows what he's talking about! Sit back and take notes as the pro dishes out the details for pricing, budgeting, food, people, destinations, boats, skippers, packing, seasickness, and more. Just don't listen at work and try to hide it, you'll laugh out loud too much.
