My dad narrated this, Art Rockwood. He had an incredible voice, and it's nice to hear it again. Thanks for posting.

loved hearing your dad on fridays after noon hour news on the radio doing the trivia cross talk, had a cpl stumpers thrown his way :) also, i travelled on that boat as a young child from Goose Bay to Nain.

Those five folk are great musicians. Thank you. Newfoundland is a storehouse of British and Irish culture. The relationships here in Europe are up in the air just now. Newfoundlanders can help remind us that our shared transatlantic culture has deep strengths and needs rebuilding.

That's right. While the British have an identity crisis I, an accordion player and solid Newfoundlander can attest that we have no such qualms with where we come from

We did the three week trip from St. John's to Nain and back in the early 70's. My brother and I were likely 12 & 13. Best trip ever for a family from Toronto. We were the first supply ship of the season to many of the most northern communities. It was quite the celebration in every port.

Magical. Thanks so much for this. As a retired seafarer I could almost smell the Atlantic spray.

My father was a crew member on the Bonavista for many years, and would have made this trip a few times. I remember him speaking of Capt. "Jobby" Kean.

What a great show. I wish they would have done something similar for the MV Caribou and Smallwood when they retired them.

The best years of my life were spent working on this ship as 3rd off,2nd off, 1st off, and Master on this vessel,I last visited this vessel at the Louis Basin in Quebec after it was sold to a Quebec company to conduct tours on the St.Lawrence River ,I don't think the enterprise amount to anything,sand the vessel was beached in the are of Petite Riverea P.Q.

I remember watching this on tv when it was broadcast..... actually TAPED it on vhs which was pretty high tech back then..... watched it repeatedly for years after..... thanks for posting and RIP Dermot

Same here. Tried to get it from CBC but they wouldn't release it because of the music I think ... this a PUBLIC broadcaster who paid for the show with OUR tax dollars .... I figure that alone makes it PUBLIC PROPERTY.

North American built steel vessels last 100 years or more with proper maintenance. Why are we replacing these great vessels with boats built in China?
