Legends of the Fall

t , we take our role as the definitive source for the best boating stories in boating seriously. Whether you’re wrenching on an inboard. On our most recent pod, “An Uncommon Owner of Uncommon Boats,” Dan interviews Radenko Milakovich, the devoted owner of J Craft boats. Milakovich describes his completely unconventional pathway from escaping Gorbachev-era Russia to becoming the builder of some of the most beautifully crafted motoryachts we’ve ever seen. You can also sit down with Senior Editor Chris Dixon and Roy Merritt as the builder of some of the world’s most iconic sportfishers breaks down a 100-year family boatbuilding legacy and what it takes to work with some of the most knowledgeable, demanding and interesting clients in the world—folks like Jimmy Buffett. And speaking of Mr. Buffett, back in 1999, our own Chris Dixon had the great fortune of being hired by the late, great pirate to document his life and tour—and they remained friends and colleagues until Jimmy’s untimely passing in September. In our “Live Like Jimmy” pod, Dan turns the tables on Chris, interviewing him about two decades hairball adventures in the air and on the water with one of the most brilliant and fascinating boaters to ever take the helm.
