The Boat Geeks #39 - Kiana has singlehanded her Wharram catamaran across the Atlantic Ocean three times, and once with two other women for the making of a documentary film.
Recorded on location in the Fisheries Supply "Live at the Wooden Boat Festival Stage" during the 2025 Port Townsend Wooden Boat Festival (PTWBF), your host Darren takes a deep dive into the world of boating.
This episode: Kiana discusses the joy in sailing across the ocean alone, the love for her Wharram catamaran, the documentary film "Women & the Wind", and the lofty goals of the Women & the Wind Foundation. If that all sounds impressive, she is! Her film was the featured event at the 48th Port Townsend Wooden Boat Festival.
