About this listen

Nassau Harbour, Paradise Bay. We were steaming straight for the island. I checked the compass and the line of palms—about 600 yards to the shore.

’Continuous soundings!’ I called.

It was shoaling rapidly. Now or never.

’Hard-a-port!’

There was an anguished cough from the wheelhouse—then silence.

It may be bound of romantic places, but for the navigating officer it is no idyll. Comedy, love and near disaster form the happy blend which makes these real-life stories such an enjoyable listen, And the fact that this particular ship, MV DOULOS, is quite like any other.
