Radio program about the famous seal fleets that used to sail from the ports of Newfoundland, up into the Arctic waters to hunt for seals are recalled by some of the old salts of St. John's. The men who were on the ships tell many stories of adventure and heroic deeds. The decline in seal hunting in recent years is due to the fact that there is no longer a demand on the world market for seal oil. Now, just one vessel sails from the port of St. John's to hunt the seals of the north. <30mn>
