About this listen
In this engaging episode of the U.S. Navy History Podcast, hosts Dale and Christophe cover several significant ships named Enterprise, spanning from historical steamboats to the victorious America's Cup yacht. The discussion begins with the 1814 steamboat Enterprise and its journey through the War of 1812 and subsequent legal battles, highlighting its crucial role in establishing steamboat commerce on the Mississippi River. The conversation then shifts to a sobering recount of the slave ship Enterprise and its dramatic encounter with British anti-slavery laws in Bermuda. Finally, the hosts delve into the advanced design and racing legacy of the 1930 J-class yacht Enterprise, which won the America's Cup before being scrapped in 1935. The episode concludes with a tribute to Sergeant First Class William B. Bryan Woods Jr., honoring his sacrifice in Afghanistan.
