28. English World Cruiser and Old Viking Shipmate- Jamie Wharram

Jamie was featured in the "Valentines Day Special" (Episode 17), where he got poked fun of quite a bit and took it very well.  In this episode we get into Jamie's unique upbringing sailing around the world on a "catamaran" (Actually, technically a "double canoe").  We also get into our experiences on the viking ship the Sea Stallion, and some of the fun and craziness that ensued there.  You will probably notice that Jamie and I are two very different people with differing opinions and world views, and yet we are very comfortable in each others presence and able to poke fun at each other in a good-humored way.  Ours is a bond that was born of a 6 week journey from Ireland to Denmark on a viking ship, and it transcends such trivial differences.
