#440: Andy Schell // 10 Years of 59º North Sailing


Andy Schell. We know him, we love him, he's the founder of this very podcast! And of course the co-founder of 59º North Sailing. In this episode, Emma turns the interview table around on Andy to ask him about this past decade of 59º North Sailing. A lot has changed from the early inspirations of starting the business to where Andy sits now, in Sweden, a parent of a 4-year old, and an employer to a whole staff at 59 North. Then again, not much has changed. Andy is still just as in love with sailing and even more inspired by this company as it grows and evolves.

Deep dives on the art of seam’nship

Founded by 59º North Sailing's professional sailing staff, The Quarterdeck's mission is to connect like-minded sailors & dreamers who are passionate about seam'nship and want to learn and explore the art in an engaging, inclusive, inspirational and educational setting. We share knowledge we've earned over tens of thousands of miles on the high seas, critically examining our own experiences & decision-making, and use the collective knowledge of the membership to make all of us better sailors.

The Quarterdeck is designed to be part resource library, part member hangout & forum, and part inspirational archive. Whether you're an armchair sailor just wanting to learn the ropes and gain inspiration, or a seasoned voyager, there is a place for you on The Quarterdeck.
