Episode 13 with Sara & Sophie: SEA-EYE 4's First Mission (ENG)

We had to take a bit of a podcast break because I was on the
first mission of SEA-EYE 4 as RHIB Communicator, alongside Sára
Činčurová, Journalist and Human Rights activist. In this special
episode, we share our thoughts, feelings, and impressions from
the first-ever rescue mission of Sea-Eye's new vessel. We try to
reconstruct the entire mission with its total of 6 rescue cases
in less than 3 days and 408 rescued people aboard. We explain our
roles and try to give a very personal and heartfelt insight as to
what happened aboard the rescue boats and the mothership.
Together we recount our most memorable moments, conversations we
had with the survivors, and what we've learned during these
intense four weeks.
