Here’s something you likely didn’t see coming: as of today I have sold Sailing Anarchy. After 22 years of creating, publishing, and stirring as much shit up as I could (while maintaining SA as a business), I feel like now is a good time to hand the tiller over to someone else.
Oh don’t worry, I’ll still be driving the content as I have been retained for at least the next 12 months, so we’ll continue to have the good, informative, snarky, ridiculous and entertaining stuff we’ve always strived to produce.
But I have never cared for all of the other work that goes into running a business; you know the taxes and the payroll and the assorted other heaps of nonsense that is required to keep SA afloat. But afloat we have been, through thick and thin, good times and bad. We’re like dogshit on your shoes; it never seems to go away. And the stink lingers for what seems like forever. 22 years of forever.
I don’t know that this is an end of an era, as I’ll still be here and I’ve signed a relatively short non-compete with the new owners, but handing over the keys is still such a strange feeling for me…
