At Sea with publius

While in mid–Atlantic aboard the cruise ship Majestic Princess, I managed to record and upload some brief shows.

  • 2025–02–21 Bound from Port Everglades to Funchal, noon fix : 29°15′ N, 56°25′ W
  • 2025–02–25 Approaching Funchal, noon fix : 32°48′ N, 20°12′ W
  • 2025–02–28 Bound from Funchal to Cadiz, noon fix : 34°41′ N, 11°16′ W
  • 2025–03–01 Departing Cadiz for Malaga via Gibraltar, and you can hear the captain’s announcement as we leave port. I discuss the Museum of Electricity in Funchal, the possibilities of “small modular” nuclear power there, and my opinions regarding nuclear–propelled fast passenger liners, which may provide some tourist–class services if air travel is limited.
  • 2025–03–04 The captain’s noon announcement on the previous day, 37°53′ N, 0°14′ W, my good wishes, and a giggle from my traveling companion.
