Retired Captain Samuel Schropp joins me again on the show - 110 episodes after his first visit a few years back. He retired from the river in 2020, served as an expert witness in legal proceedings as a representative of industry, served his community, and has since moved away to paradise with his wife, dogs, and a cat to enjoy the retired life away from the chaos of the mainland. He recounts briefly his career (see episode 54!), and we dive into a bit of history that may well have gone unrecorded if not for this podcast. We banter a bit about the old days and what the industry has become, and we close on his involvement, analysis, and expert opinion in the case of the ill-fated M/V R.C. Creppel. *The opinions expressed herein are those of Captain Schropp alone and are in the public record at the time of this recording.*
