Ep. 110 - The Perfect Storm Judy Reeves
Back in October 1991 the "Perfect Storm" or the 100 year storm or the Halloween Gale whatever you call it a very rare and powerful storm came to be in the late days of October. It was made famous by the book/movie that told the account of the Andrea Gale which became a hollywood blockbuster that starred Mark Walburg & George Clooney.
Well Judy Reeves was on the Eishin Maru 78 a Japanese fishing vessel that got trapped in the eye of the storm. We discuss a heck of a lot more than just the storm such as surviving cancer, the meaning of life, the events that led up to the storm, general life on the ocean along with what happened while this storm pounded away at their vessel.
