A station given over entirely to sea shanties and maritime folk song, spanning traditional work songs, modern shanty revival recordings and the folk-punk end of the repertoire. It runs its own website and streams continuously at 128 kbps.
One of the most single-minded stations in this directory, and a good answer to the question of whether niche internet radio is worth the trouble. Nothing else on the dial plays this.
