North Channel Mayhem with The Boomershines

Captain Mark, Admiral Cinda, and the crew of Sea Shine face a classic cruising conundrum: wait four days for a huge storm to pass, or make a tactical 30-mile dash through what they affectionately call "spicy" three-foot waves. With the clock ticking and the North Channel's notorious exposure looming, they opt for the daring daylight run. Watch as they take you into the cockpit for a thrilling ride, featuring a white-knuckle engine room check, and a surprisingly heroic check-in on the ship's cat who proves he’s a true sea soldier even in the muck! They manage to dock just in time to enjoy the historical charm of Thessalon and ponder Canada's greatest pastry, the butter tart. However, their relief is extremely short-lived. Don't miss the dramatic finale to see how their short hop turns into a long, wet wait.
