Welcome to our #52 Episode of Offshore Explorer with Scott Dodgson. One year of telling stories about traveling the world on boats. Boarding a sailboat and voyaging over the horizon requires, in my mind, a balance of two philosophical tenants: “The Truth” and “The Good.” Another way to describe the tenants as the far ends of a lever between a fulcrum (Moral, physical, emotional). A sailing life is about finding correspondence between the rational and irrational, or practical and romantic. The method of melding both tenants is found in the practice of Zen. Sometimes apparent and sometimes not. The Zen of sailing is simple and complex. It is natural and fabricated. It requires different skills to think critically and not think deliberately at all.
