@pressonjt you are an incredible human, and I really hope this podcast helps spread the word about the @jordanthomasfoundation
The @jordanthomasfoundation is changing lives by helping children with limb loss gain access to prosthetic care and adaptive opportunities they otherwise couldn’t afford. Founded after Jordan Thomas lost both legs in a boating accident at 16, the foundation has now supported 225+ kids across 34 states and provided over $2.5M in program services. More than prosthetics, they’re building confidence, community, and opportunity for children to live active, fearless lives.
Keep on crushing it brotha. Everyone please give this a listen, and help support the @jordanthomasfoundation ❤️🙌🏻
Episode 46 of @thequalifiedcaptainpodcast with @pressonjt is out now on YouTube Spotify and Apple
Jordan Thomas is an adaptive athlete, speaker, and founder of the @jordanthomasfoundation . At just 16 years old, @pressonjt life changed forever after a tragic boating accident that resulted in the loss of both his legs.
While still recovering, Jordan found purpose in helping others facing similar challenges. He went on to create a foundation dedicated to providing prosthetics and long-term support to children with limb loss, giving them the opportunity to live active, and confident lives.
In this episode, Jordan shares his story, the mindset that carried him through recovery, and how he’s turned adversity into impact.
May is National Safe Boating Month, and this conversation serves as an important reminder of the dangers propellers can pose and how quickly things can go wrong on the water.
Episode 46 is available now on @youtube , @spotify , and @apple . Link in bio.
We didn’t build another boring boating course…
We built the one people actually need.
The Qualified Captain State Boating Course is officially approved by the National Association of State Boating Law Administrators (NASBLA) and is now live in Florida, North Carolina, California and Maryland with more states soon to come!
Designed to go beyond the basics, this course uses real-world scenarios to teach boaters what actually happens on the water, not just what’s in a textbook.
- Earn your state-recognized boating safety certificate
- Learn from real incidents
- Gain the confidence to operate legally and safely
Whether you’re new to boating, have years of experience, or just turned the legal age to get your boating license in your state, this course is built to help you do it the right way.

“He was talking shit to us from the moment we showed up to the sand bar for being to close because he forgot his stern anchor. Then he had a bean bag bust and dumped all the filling from it over the side of his boat. We tried scooping it up with nets we had and he was talking shit to us and laughing at us for picking it up”
