John Barry never knew his father, a fighter pilot who was killed in action in WWII. But John grew up determined to honor his father's memory by living life to the full and not wasting away in the confines of a dusty office.
As a young man, he left his native North Carolina and drove to Annapolis on a lark, hoping to find employment in the sailing capital of America.
He took on work as a broker, and through that ended up scoring a job on the schooner, Harvey Gamage.
Some years later, he became the captain of this storied, romantic tall ship.
In this episode, Captain Barry sits down with Seabird’s John Herlig on the shores of the Intracoastal Waterway in North Carolina, to share tales of years gone by, sailing the Caribbean Sea.
