I’ve got a great show for you today featuring my guest, Eric Dahlkamp, a five-time Texas 200 participant as well as an avid "scabber"/boatbuilder/modifier/restorer who particularly enjoys the art and practice of “scabbing” sailboats — not sure what that is? Take a listen to learn more about what scabbing entails, as well as dive into what it's like to prepare for and participate in the Texas 200 "mess about". Eric also spends some time telling us about his most recent scabbing project -- an O'Day Daysailer II with which he participated in the 2026 Texas 200.
