  Episode 28: Zuckerberg's $300 Million LAUNCHPAD Mega Yacht Ignores Stranded Skiff?

  Aug 22, 20264 minS1

  The audio companion to our YouTube video! I captured Mark Zuckerberg's shiny mega yacht LAUNCHPAD in Ketchikan last month from the MV RIVIERA. I was going to eventually post a short video about her and then today, received the news that the $300 million vessel refused a call for assistance from a stranded skiff, despite being the closest vessel. Fortunately, UnCruises' WILDERNESS LEGACY was also nearby to take the skiff under tow to a safe anchorage where it was given the necessary fuel to continue its journey. Not a good look for our Meta guy if this is the case but great for UnCruise, one of my favorite small ship cruise lines and the very best way to see Alaska. #uncruise #metayacht #launchpadyacht Also on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iTQpSf2jIoU Follow our journey: Find all our socials and watch us on YouTube: https://linktr.ee/midshipcentury

  Episode 27: 13 Things I Hated About the S S NORWAY (Yes, I Go There!)

  Aug 22, 202610 minS1

  The audio companion to our YouTube video! To be fair and honest, I am not one of those ocean liner sycophants who has only praise and love for the SS NORWAY. While I did love many things about her that are covered in the companion video, "The 13 Things I Loved About the SS NORWAY", she was a highly flawed ship that was increasingly downgraded as time marched on. NCL was cutting corners to keep her operating and doing anything they could to reap a return on the investment of having her in their fleet. After that hideous addition of two decks at Bremerhaven in 1990, the few remaining vestiges of her glorious SS FRANCE days were gradually being replaced with revenue-generating spaces. This video discusses those changes and more.
