The Escape Pods

This episode of The Shooting The Breeze Sailing Podcast finds Mr. Smoker and myself at the Annapolis Sailboat Show back in October of 2015, catching up with Ocean Research Project’s Matt Rutherford, and then proceeding to surreptitiously sneak around the former Marriott Hotel on the waterfront trying to find a quiet place to pod. Matt explains the realities of modern day Greenland and the research him and partner Nicole Trenholm spent last summer performing for various scientific outfits. We also discuss citizen science, a new buzzword among the cruising set, and the difficulties of outfitting, operating, funding, and carrying out real research out in the wilds of the worlds Oceans.
