July 30, 2025 EP 113 Captain Tim Vincent "My Greatest Catch" PT 2
OK, we have been Recording off an on for coming on 6 years, THX COVID, but Tim is an example of why we do try to capture our Maritime Stories. THIS episode and the following are the exact reason Maritime Stories should be preserved. Special thanks to Pacific Marine Expo, National Fisherman and Xtratuf, as well as Trident Seafoods on this one. Not even going to try to explain his history as he does it so eloquently himself. Both episodes will be posted together as I personally could not wait for the second part.
