#86 SailTies: Turning Every Voyage Into a Story

April 6, 2026·33 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

I am SO excited to introduce you all to Sailties! This is an awesome app for sailors where we can log our trips, exchange information, create a sailor resume, look for adventures to join, and so much more! Today I'm interviewing the co-founders Chris and Tom. They will outline all of the incredible benefits that this app includes. I am very excited about how this app is going to modernize my own record keeping and will help me avoid having so many logbooks! I also love the engagement that it creates between sailors and it is SO much better than trolling Facebook and other forums trying to find competent people to sail with. Thank you so much Chris and Tom for creating this awesome product!Download SailTies now!SailTies Official WebsiteSailTies App on App StoreSailTies on Google PlayChapters00:00 Introduction to SailTies and Founders' Background03:38 Prototyping and Feedback Process06:00 User Experience and App Features08:52 Future Developments and Enhancements11:29 Safety Features and Community Engagement14:17 Bridging the Experience Gap in Sailing16:49 Reception and Growth of SailTies19:17 Community Impact and User Feedback23:58 Team Dynamics and Marketing Challenges25:34 Partnerships and User Engagement28:33 Finding the Right Crew and Personality Fit
