In this episode, Graeme Hill is joined by maritime historian John McCrystal for a gripping Shipwreck Tales account of the Betsey, a small sealing brig caught in the brutal realities of early 19th-century southern waters. What begins as a routine voyage from Sydney to Macquarie Island becomes a desperate fight for survival, as scurvy, starvation, broken equipment and relentless weather drive the crew towards the New Zealand coast.
