The Wayward Ferry

The Wayward Ferry

Welcome to Fred’s Red Shed III, the ferry that runs between Hogg Island and Oceantown. The passengers are hardly giving a thought to the thick fog, huge waves and ferocious winds: Captain Fred always brings the ship through. But wait – there seems to be a problem with the new high-end mechanical diesel internal combustion engine that the Captain signed his life away for. Will they make it to the mainland before being crushed on the jagged coastline?

Hour One has 2 20-second pauses (with music) at 15:32 and 38:46 for local station ID:
