Yesterday took a bit longer than expected but we were able to make Cape Cod Canal last night just before the slack ebb began. We opted to tie up in Sandwich Marina for the night and set out this morning

Budgets, Scripts and Graphics
Lately I haven’t been posting as much as I should. It’s easy to let stuff like this get pushed to the back burner and forgotten when I get too busy working on the budget and crowndfunding video scripts and graphics. Lately I’ve also gotten caught up in the murky world of networking. I’ve found it […]
Research at the Great Library of Google.
All great documentaries are built on a strong foundation of research. Making any documentary is all about knowing the facts of your subject mater. In our case, the issue is the condition of the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway and the Atlantic seaboard. However, one can research for a lifetime and never know everything there is to […]

We are adventurers on a quest to bring an understanding of the North Americas Atlantic Coastal Wetlands into homes and classrooms around the world. This film promises to both entertain and inform the old […]
Now I Remember…
I finally managed to initiate the recovery procedures to reset my laptop to factory specifications tonight and during the process I suddenly remembered why I hate working on computers. Getting this up and running has really been bogging down my productivity lately. After its done and I an actually use it again I’ll be able […]
Logs, Blogs and Keels on Wheels
Had to take a day off yesterday. One of the biggest fears I have at this stage of the project is that we may push ourselves too hard and end up burning out and losing major ground in our productivity. So yesterday I took on a new mantle as chief medic and temporarily relieved the […]
Work??? Surely You Jest
Today the word monkey explained what a powder monkey does on a boat. I find myself less than impressed. Not only do those stupid monkeys expect me to do more than sit around looking adorable, but the work they want me to do involves carrying a smelly black powder and cannonballs around.
