Episode 34 brings to the podcast a long overdue and special guest, the legendary Captain Jim Maya, to tell his stories, talk about his whale watching experience on the Salish Sea dating back to 1996, and the legacy he has created.
Captain Jim is an epic story teller, teacher, whale and wildlife enthusiast, and the ultimate connector. He has connected people around the world with whales, wildlife and sense of place found in the Salish Sea, including Jeff and Sara and many of the Maya's Legacy Whale Watching team.
Episode 34 begins by discussing these connections and moves on with Jim talking about making his big life change from being a high school teacher in California to starting a whale watch company in Friday Harbor on San Juan Island. He talks about what is was like on the water when he first started, back in the day when superpods of Southern Resident killer whales were commonly seen all spring and summer and the changes that have taken place since his early days. Jim weaves in some of his great stories throughout the episode.
