Well, I’m back, at least mostly upright – after a supposedly mild (it didn’t feel very mild to me) bout of pneumonia!
I was flat out on the couch last week, but I’m glad to be back, though I’m moving slowly. Looking forward to reclaiming my energy in the coming weeks.
Today we’ll talk a bit about the weather offshore locally, about a solo sailor out there braving it, and a look at some ships.
Stay healthy!

A quick note to explain my abrupt absence from the website last week: I was diagnosed with pneumonia a week ago Sunday, and i was so under the weather that I really couldn’t do anything but schedule some rerun shows for KMUN and call it good.
But I’m a bit upright now, and feeling somewhat better. Looking forward to getting my energy back.
Tomorrow shows will resume. Thanks for your patience!

We’ve got a new pilot boat operating on the Astoria waterfront these days. She’s called the “Swift” and she’s a new addition to the local fleet.
Today we’ll talk about her and also about pilot boats in general: a very unusual breed of vessel.
