No Racing, No Pressure, Just Boats — The Lake Pepin Messabout
Episode 62
Thursday, 13 August, 2026
Send us Fan MailWhat if the best sailing event is one where nobody is trying to win?In this episode of the NanoCruising Podcast, we head to the Lake Pepin Small Boat Messabout, one of the Midwest's best-known gatherings for small boat sailors. I'm joined by longtime Lae Pepin Messabout participants Tim Ingersoll and Bill Paxton to talk about what makes this event so special.The Lake Pepin Messabout isn't about racing, competition, or proving who's got the fastest boat. It's about showing up with a small boat, getting out on the water, and enjoying the company of people who simply love messing about in boats.Tim has been to the event many times, and together we talk about the boats, the sailing, the people, and the easygoing atmosphere that keeps bringing sailors back year after year.There's something wonderfully simple about an event where the goal isn't to win anything. It's to sail, explore, swap stories, meet old friends, make new ones—and maybe spend a little too much time talking about boats.If you've ever wondered what a small boat gathering is really like, or you're looking for an event where you don't have to race, compete, or have the "perfect" boat, this episode will give you a taste of the Lake Pepin spirit.Sometimes, the best sailing is just messing about with good people.-----------------------------------------------------Join the conversation: Facebook group Mailing list PatreonMore at: www.nanocruising.comSeas Your Own Adventure 🌊⛵
