A lifetime at sea

This feature-length episode of the podcast features a conversation with someone from the Bay who has spent over five decades at sea in a variety of roles.

I've been talking to Tony Cowell who first went to sea when he was just 3 years old!

He's seen the sea at its best and worst during a career that has taken him from skippering some of Fleetwood's best known fishing boats to serving as lifeboat coxswain.

While he is still chair of RNLI Fleetwood he's just retired as captain of the Fleetwood to Knott End Ferry, a post he held for two decades.
