• Christmas Locktail Party
    Dec 25 2024

    Like three kings, rather two queens and a king we bring you gifts this Christmas Day! Steph, Missy, and Jeff take your listener corrections, sing boaty Christmas carols, float through the earl history of the Schuylkill Navigation Company, and wrap up a massive Boat Of The Week like a present just for you! Our second boaty kiddie ride, a Vanquish, metal flake midlife crisis, hot little wooden boat roadster, mysterious commercial fishing vessel, Chris Craft flybridge cruiser, and a polished aluminum tumblehome double cockpit runabout go toerail to toerail for the coveted win. Recorded live in the bed of a pickup truck, check out @theboatyshow on YouTube to see us make the Christmas ham. Hope you have a restorative and pleasant Holiday season. Thanks for listening!

    This week we record live in a Whaler! Missy co-hosts while Steph is out of town helping a friend. We recap on a big part of what makes boating special - clean water. Missy weighs in on The Oil Exclusion and the US Environmental Protection Agency's Leaking Underground Storage Tank (yes, L.U.S.T) program. Jeff seeks forgiveness for dissing Whalers, and a nice little Boat Of The Week with the very first boat kiddie ride entry! Keep in touch, thanks for listening, you're the best!

  • It Wasn't Me
    Dec 11 2024

    We need clean water for boats! Get wise on water pollution and the Gowanus Canal toxic waste cleanup from a Superfund expert who wishes to remain anonymous. We learn how our rivers, lakes, streams, and bays in the US went from industrial dumping grounds and sewars to the beautiful places we boat today, and how the worst of the polluted sites from hundreds of years ago got cleaned up through public private collaboration. Like the easter egg after the outro? Check out Mac Glocky on YouTube, brilliant. New merch available at https://www.stickermule.com/theboatyshow check us out on YouTube @theboatyshow. Thanks for listening!

  • No Sleep Til Gowanus
    Dec 4 2024

    This is a good one. From the Gowanus Canal to Rockaway beaches, Jamaica Bay to Red Hook, Stephan von Muehlen takes us along the Brooklyn and Queens waterfront. Stephan has lived, worked, and loved the hidden littoral spaces of New York City for over twenty years. Learn about a waterborne art and activist community that plays hard and works harder to keep Brooklyn grounded and show people that they don't have to go to the Hamptons to enjoy the water. We're joined by Stephan's wife and our longtime friend Anna who shares her own view and experiences from a life on the water. Stephan believes in making stuff in Brooklyn, where he leads a company that builds pour-over coffee machines a block away from the Gowanus Canal. Check out Stephan's company www.poursteady.com and enjoy the show! Thanks so much for listening, look for video of the episode on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@TheBoatyShow.
