Build in 1904, the SV Maple leaf is a 92 foot Shooner cruising BC coast and Alaska;

======================
We had a lot of fun planning this KAP session; First we wanted to shoot different angles and the zodiac was the only option but we needed to have (some) sun, a bit of wind and a rather flat sea in order to move freely around her with the kite and camera. Captain Greg Shea and first officer Ashley Stocks were rather enthusiasts about this session and Ashley who was driving the Zodiac perfectly understood what speed we had to keep upwind and downwind to maintain the kite and camera at the desired altitude.
A rather small platform, the light could have been brighter.

First Officer Ashley Stocks is having as much fun as we do. Already a KAPer, she tested different combination of kites and GoPro on a recent crossing from Costa Rica to Hawaii

Going downwind we had to really maintain a speed that would allow us to keep the kite and camera aloft.

Great team, thanks to Mary, our naturalist who was smiling all the way, to Ashley for her skills driving the zodiac and a big Mauruuru to Heidy who was in charge of the line. I only had to give instructions...
