Bold Venture

A Camelia for El Dobbin

by

Bold Venture is an adventure drama set in the Caribbean, following the exploits of charter-boat captain Slate Shannon and his partner, Sailor Duval. Based on the island of Tortuga, the pair take on jobs that lead them into danger, intrigue, and encounters with people whose troubles are rarely simple.

Each episode unfolds as a self-contained radio adventure, with Shannon and Sailor navigating the risks of life around the islands. The series combines action and mystery with the atmosphere of a tropical port, where a routine assignment can quickly turn into a test of nerve and loyalty.

Its appeal lies in the lively partnership at the center of the stories and the contrast between the relaxed island setting and the hazards that follow. The result is a brisk, atmospheric adventure series for listeners who enjoy classic radio drama and tales of seafaring, suspense, and resourceful heroes.
