Andy Hesketh, founder of the Odyssey Sailing Festival and host of the Ocean Cruisers Podcast, describes leaving a corporate career in the UK to live aboard a Jeanneau Sun Odyssey named Voyager and sail full-time, currently based in Greece.5:51 He grew up in rough neighborhoods in the UK, left at 20, spent years in property renovation and engineering work, and reached liveaboard life roughly 15 years after first planning it.15:21 COVID lockdowns — specifically being blocked from accessing his boat by the Spanish government — prompted him to start the Ocean Cruisers Podcast out of boredom; guests have included Lin Pardee, John Gretschmer, and Laura Decker.44:05 The Odyssey Sailing Festival, a flotilla event with world-class speakers, ran its first edition in the BVI and moved to Greece.34:51 Hesketh discusses the cruising life as roughly 40% sailing and 60% travel, his wife's restricted travel history growing up in the Middle East, navigating the Spanish education system with an autistic child, and the gap between his tattooed appearance and his self-described nerdy, fish-obsessed personality.1:05:49 Andy Schell hosts from Sweden and notes one open bunk remains on Falcon for an 11-day, 800-mile passage from the Marquesas to Tahiti through the Tuamotu Archipelago.2:00
