Sitting in the wheelhouse of this classic yacht, I’m reminded how powerful reflection really is, what worked, what didn’t, and where I need to grow. This boat was built in the 1950s, yet over the past year it’s taught me lessons no modern design ever could. As a new yacht builder, it’s easy to get distracted by what’s new and flashy. But restoring and running a classic reminds you that everything strong starts with a solid foundation. Fundamentals matter. Craft matters. Patience matters. This year is a building year. I’m doubling down on strengthening my sales skills while creating this Skool platform to help others do the same. Follow along—and let’s take 2026 to an astronomical level.
