As a result, this podcast will feature the best sea stories, survivors, heroes, captains from different industries, and ultimately anyone who loves being on the water. We'll tell you the ugly truth, with some laughs along the way. Hope you enjoy.

Ep 2: Sascha Scheller, Andrew Sherman and Jack Sherman
In the summer of 2021, Sascha Scheller fell overboard while fishing alone off the coast of NC. Sascha watched his boat run away from him while he stayed afloat in the water for over 2 hours without a life jacket. The unmanned boat nearly collided with another boat where father and son, Andrew and Jack Sherman, were fishing. Andrew and Jack hopped on board, reported the situation, and told each other "we are going to look for this guy until the Coast Guard gets out here and tells us to stop.'"
