12. Tug Life: Tugboat Operator- Megan Emerson
Manage episode 317662672 series 3289426
A very pleasant, informative interview, and a must listen for boaters who sail in waters with tugboats! Megan and I discuss her Alaskan background, what got her into tug boats, and some of the near misses and not-so-near misses that occur when pushing tens of thousands of tons of barges. We get into what everyday life and work is like on continually operating Columbia River Tugs and even touch on some environmental issues towards the end.
Intro/Ending Music: Many thanks to Riggy Rackin for allowing the use of music from his Nauticas album. The intro and ending themes are the sailor song "A Roving", specifically track 1. Learn more or order his music at www.riggy.com
My Children's Books: "The Greatest Captain in the World" and "The Greatest Captain in the World Too" are available on Amazon or directly from me at... www.greatestcaptain.com
