PodCastaway: Liveaboard Cruising episodes

  • 20: Samoa to Tonga

    A short podcast recorded on our two overnight hops between Samoa and Vava'u ... and our two week sojourn in Niuatoputapu. I found bandwidth in Vava'u, so here it is.

  • 18: Bora Bora to Samoa. Part 1

    Recorded during our passage from Bora Bora to Samoa. I ramble on about Tigger the cat and our mail delivery challenges. I split this Podcast into two due to uploading difficulties in Samoa. Part 1 of 2.

  • 17: Tuamoto Archipeligo
    This podcast runs from leaving the Marquesas May 22nd to arriving in Tahiti June 22nd. We visit Makemo, Fakarava and Toua Atolls in the Tuamotu Archipeligo and see lots o' sharks.
    1 hr 3 min
  • 16: Galapagos to Marquesas

    Recorded during our three week passage across 3,000 miles of Pacific Ocean from the Galapagos Islands to the Marquesas in French Polynesia.

    I have since discovered that the island of UA-HUKA should be pronounced 'wa huka'. I appologise for mangling it in my ignorance.

  • 15: Panama to Galapagos

    This was recorded over four late night watches during our 8 day passage from Las Perlas, Panama, to the Galapagos Islands. I'm having to speak quietly so that I do not wake the off-watch crew!

    29 min
  • 14: Panama Canal
    We've passed through the Panama Canal into the Pacific and this show is a soundseeing tour of the Canal transit.

  • 13: Panama Canal Line Handler Training Video

    In preparation for our own Canal Transit tomorrow, I have been through the Canal twice with other vessels. When I was with Lady Jane III I took along my pocket camcorder to shoot some video that would help me explain to my linehandlers (none of whom will have been through before) what to expect.

    The quality is awful -- most is shot at night, and the camcorder is picking up a lot of wind noise -- but it might be of some interest. I couldn't film everything because I sometimes had work to do. I think they got something from it, but I'll go through every stage with them before we set off.

    7 min
  • 12: Passage to San Blas
    Show 12. Recorded over a four day passage from Aruba to Panama's San Blas Islands. This is our last passage in the Caribbean. Soon we'll be going through the canal into the Pacific.
    37 min
  • 11: Off Venezuela

    At sea in the small hours again. It shows -- I sound half asleep.

    New music! No more Trinidad, so no more Pan. We're in Venezuela, so I've gone Latin.
