Welcome!

This blog started as a casual and joyful yet energetic and voluminous exchange of fish stories and other tales of and about the sea. We had a rich supply of them from our respective research. After a few months we found ourselves thinking in tandem: “surely others would be interested in and delighted by these stories about the sea as it once was!”  and “we need to keep track of all this!”  Then we decided to put a name on our banter and give it a home.  Hence a blog curating the Archives of The Sea and inviting others to join us in an exploration of the sea that was!
