No Common Voyage

In which the Royal Navy has a big problem, Sir John Barrow has a big dream, William Scoresby Jr. has a big disappointment, and Sir John Ross has the first of many big issues.

In which I talk about the Hudson's Bay Company, say more French names incorrectly, complain about Arthur Dobbs, talk even more about the Hudson's Bay Company, and finally get to namedrop Stan Rogers.
