About this listen
Send us Fan Mail
In memory of a dearly departed friend, we go back 60 years to a very special nautical episode that we know he would have enjoyed.
In an exciting departure from normal service, Raymond Baxter presents to us live from the first ever commercial crossing of the Channel by hovercraft. And along the way he shows us a whole range of exciting new developments in the world of seagoing transportation. This includes:
- Hydrofoils
- Research submarines
- Aquanauts (the "Dandies of the Deep")
- Underwater ejector seats
- Dracone barges
- Plenty of hovercraft chat
Avast ye landlubbers! Anchors aweigh! etc etc.
