I am looking for a sailing song, that might have come out in the 80's and it includes something about an Island. It is similiar to Loggins and Messin's Vahevela. Any ideas on what it could be - it has steel drums and is great to dance to with male singer.
Thank!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I've been looking a long time to find out the name of my favorite sailing song. I used to hear it all the time & missed hearing it.
CSN - Southern Cross

I am looking for a song back in the 80s, with the words, "swabing the deck and set the sails"

That's a great list. I think it's a very nice detail from you to send the copy of the CD. It's such a pity I didn't get to have it, but anyway, I can still download it anywhere.
