This site was never intended as an offshore radio site. We really started off as a historical site dedicated to the Irish pirates and documenting historical data in the form of old logs and personal recollections. But such is the volume of offshore material that we have in the archives, the pages are growing and growing. There are many unique audio recordings available via the dx archive as well. So now we are an offshore nostalgia site as well!!
