Many people have asked me about the work I do with SEA Semester, where I sail as a tall ship captain and educator in semesterlong programs at sea. This is a film (my first real film!) made during a Transatlantic crossing aboard the Sailing School Vessel Corwith Cramer. We sailed from Woods Hole, Massachusetts to Cork, Ireland. It was a great journey!
The film won the "Grand Prize" at the International Maritime Film Festival in 2017 which was really fun. It follows a leadership student (Meg), a science student (Katie), the steward (Bex), the Chief Mate (Scott), the Chief Scientist (Deb), and me as we all worry about different things on the voyage but work together as a team to get it done safely.
