RTE's SEASCAPES readio show sets sail on a new night this week and, in the weeks ahead, several new aspects to the programme will be introduced. Tonight at 10.30 p.m. on SEASCAPES, RTE Radio 1, you will hear –

•    An Irish seafarer who at the age of 16 was torpedoed and sunk in the Atlantic Ocean

•    The Captain of a ship that is ten storeys high and towering above Cork City

•    A Fianna Fail MEP who is opposed to Government policy on banning eel fishing

•    The latest angling news and why there are divisions amongst organisations in the sport

We've got a favour to ask

More people are reading Afloat.ie than ever thanks to the power of the internet but we're in stormy seas because advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news sites, we haven’t put up a paywall because we want to keep our marine journalism open.

Afloat.ie is Ireland's only full–time marine journalism team and it takes time, money and hard work to produce our content.

So you can see why we need to ask for your help.

If everyone chipped in, we can enhance our coverage and our future would be more secure. You can help us through a small donation. Thank you.
