Why does a man leave his family and the successful life he's built, one hard-won rung at a time, to literally sail into danger? Because he turned 60 and wanted to stare mortality in the face. He also wanted to do something grander and more meaningful than he had accomplished already. Today's guests, Michael and Sally Cosgrove lived this tale - and Michael wrote about it in Imperfect Passage: A Sailing Story of Vision, Terror and Redemption. Anyone who has had a milestone birthday and wondered whether they should have done something more by now will relate to his quest.
