The story of the Ouzel Galley

from The Pat Kenny Show

In 1695, a Dublin merchant ship set sail from Ringsend to Smyrna on what should have been a routine trading mission. It didn’t return within three years of its departure, and so the ship was presumed lost. Insurance was paid out, and life moved on until two years later, when the ship reappeared. Joining Pat to tell the story of the Ouzel Galley is historian and content creator Jane Casey.
