The Quarterdeck; Day of the Seafarer

Our co-host, Admiral Watson, is headed back to Washington, DC so we thought we would bring you this special interview with Karine Langlois and Ahsok Mahapatra of the International Maritime Organization discussing the Day of the Seafarer. While June 25th may have passed, we should still honor our seafarers. The Day of the Seafarer is an annual event and we hope our listeners will thank a seafarer next year, and for years to come! Here's how Amver celebrated the Day of the Seafarer.

Here is a direct link to the audio file.

The Quarterdeck transcript is available here.

You can also download the Quarterdeck in iTunes.

The Quarterdeck theme song is Botany Bay by the Blaggards, available on musicalley.com.
