This week, the lads catch up with one of yachting's most consistent winners; Morty (Peter Morton) who has more wins under his belt than any other northern hemisphere yachtsman, from the Admiral's Cup, Quarter Tonners, Half Tonners and One Tonners to Fast 40s - to name but a few.

They talk shipyards, sinkings, backing young talent, loving island life and a 1/4 tonner stuck in the swimming pool.
