Join host Buttons Padin on the 23rd episode of the Lessons Learned podcast by UK Sailmakers, featuring special guest Commander Gregory Storer of the United States Navy. In this extra-special episode, we step outside the world of sailmaking as Commander Storer discusses his journey from sailing small boats like Optis and Lasers in his youth to commanding the USS Springfield, an LA-class fast attack submarine stationed in Guam.


Commander Storer shares how his early sailing experiences shaped his submarine navigation tactics, recounts his time at the Naval Academy, and explores the dynamics of maneuvering a submarine. The episode offers fascinating insights into the challenges and techniques of submarine operations, including man-overboard recovery and navigating tight harbors.
