Poor narration of an old classic

The narrator’s attempts to mimic the accents of the old man and the young boy didn’t work for me. Better to read the story straight up - with drama, but no fake accents. I was also not impressed by the narrator’s lack of knowledge on how sailors pronounce the term “gunwale” - maybe a little more research next time. But overall, a good dramatic voice.
