- Many people have asked me about the work I do with SEA Semester, where I sail as a tall ship captain and educator in semester-long 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.

Assistant film credit also goes to my friend Shawn who sailed as a Carpenter, Intern Leona, and my mom who filmed us leaving the dock in Woods Hole!
Some of the music in the film was created by me and the crew (including Chief Mate Scott and Intern Nina), and the rest is Royalty free music and is featured below:
Jason Shaw, "Acoustic Meditation" and "One Fine Day"
Chris Zabriskie - "Cylinder Six" "That Kid in 4th Grade" and "The Temperature on the Bow"
Jahzzar - "The Valley" "Where it Goes" and "Take me Higher"
Andy G. Cohen - "Through the Lens" and "Land Legs:
David Mumford - "Night Without Sleep" "Singing in the Rain" and "Twinkle Twinkle"
Josh Woodward - "Once Tomorrow"
Море пароплави це класно.які Ви щасливі перебуваючи на такому чудесному пароплаві і воочію любуєтесь красотіщей Божественої природи.
So glad to see you involved in this Chris! I’ve watched your celestial navigation series many, many times, and they were essential to me in finally gaining some ability. You’re an insightful teacher. Bravo!
Thanks for the kind words Laurence, I appreciate it!
Beautiful story. Chris’s TH-cam celestial navigation videos inspired me to learn celestial navigation, and I’m thankful for that.
I've only watched the video but it's enough to convince me of the immense value of doing a program such as this for personal development alone as well as all the professional skills to be acquired.
This is a fantastic video and an amazing experience for young people. Thanks so much for sharing. This video reminded me of everything I enjoy about teaching. Way to go!
I used to do sail trailing on a traditional vessel on the south coast of England (Queen Galadrial). Recently I have been sailing commercial tallships (events and such) but this gave me enourmous nostalgia for the sail training I used to do. I am for sure going back to sail training once it is possible again. Cheers Chris, for reminding me how much I love sail training. This is an awesome insight into what sail training is all about.
SEA remains the GOLD standard! Bravo everyone! I'm not surprised at all to see that such talented people are still coming into the program as teachers and crew. The asea portion for me is the component that brings the whole experience full circle and offers the greatest possibilities for the greatest growth in the students. It galvanizes their sense of community and the absolute importance of the individual to the whole.
It's nearly 40 years since I met Wallace Stark aboard Sea Cloud as well as Phil Sacks, both consummate professionals and who contributed so much to SEA over the years. Wallace hired me into shipyard back in 92 I recall, to do some rigging work on Westward and Corey. My AB & Bosun when I was Chief Mate on Californian back in 91, went to work for SEA for many years, Jen Irving. Jen is perhaps the most complete seaman I have ever known! Keep teaching self-reliance and the importance of the individual to the whole as well as the science, with great people across the shore and sea components and in another 50 years others be watching another of these videos and being awed and inspired! Again BRAVO!

Absolutely outstanding , well done
What an amazing opportunity for students!
Really incredible program. Wish I would've known about this much younger. The sea still found a way around my soul. Hope to see you guys on the water someday! We'll be in a much smaller vessel named Stella Maris. Would love to meet with the crew! Fair winds! - Brandon
Thank you for this Captain Chris! As a student I much more appreciated the deck Navigation watch and its complexity
Such a lovely experience, thanks for sharing.
Man, I am so jealous right now... There's nowhere I'd rather be than crossing oceans.
This was a beautiful short film, Chris, very well made and produced like a real pro.
I guess I need to keep watching the celestial navigation clips in hopes one day I'll set sail myself.
This is brilliant .
Enjoyed seeing Chris again....followed his practical nav channel.....thx, Andrew
Wonderful.
Wow, what a great experience for all you guys ~ wish i could have done this in my earlier years
Great video!
Man, I'm a Cape Codder. I'm no scientist, but if I was 10 years younger, still single, and didn't have any kids I would have jumped at any opportunity to serve as a deckhand on this vessel. Just to learn to sail a proper ship.
I want to sail like this someday though I am not a mariner but some day I would
Hey capt.! It’s such an amazing film 🎥 Definitely loved your journey, such a thrilling experience.!
Love from India 🇮🇳
Glad you enjoyed it!
schooner rig. I really prefer ketch rigs. sailed on a 60 footer (at the waterline) years ago. double ended steel ketch with a full keel. if you wanna see something similar look at the "Joshua".. Moitessier's boat. that boat sailed around the horn several times in the 60's. nice weather this time of year and they're far enough North to stay out of hurricane paths as they rarely get above 30N on their westerly crossings.
This would be a great trip except I am now 82 and I know my limitations. We have tried as much as we could in our younger years and sailing a tall ship on the ocean got missed. We did take a ship from Italy to Australia but it wasn't the same as sailing. Ah to be able.......
How many days was that voyage to Europe ?
We took about 30 for the crossing but it was an academic program so we weren't going super fast!
I don't see any smartphone on the ship. Why is it so? and is the internet available ?
On some programs, we keep the student devices locked up for the voyage so they can focus on the shipboard community, not all programs but the big ocean ones we usually do that. I think it is a good thing. We have internet for weather and emergency communications but not for general browsing. Thanks!
Smart phones are only good for life ashore, radio is used at sea.
The "boat" is not 134 feet long, although a marina manager would charge them for it.
Nice trip. I really wanna join.
Plenty of bunks on the boat! www.sea.edu to apply, and students are accepted in many age groups and from many schools/countries.
I'm living in Vietnam, I dont know if there is a chance for me to join ?
No trips to Antarctica?
I wish I could do this so bad.
I like plumbing
Those tables …
Yes they are really cool until someone leans against one underway and everything spills....makes for good table manners!
You need the Pony Trainer to help????
Yes indeed! I still have my sextant satchel too :)
@@NavigationTraining I'm headed back to Eagle for a couple weeks
LOVE YOUR PROJECT inspirational Thank you all the best for 2022 I have subscribed. 😀25the Dec and looking to take Tiedamew our little ART EPADITION sail ship Junk Schooner rig USA Art project global non-profit global leadership Mother Earth for all life the sea unites and heals our Earth for all life. End global toxic age.
Was thinking do rehab ship get peoples lives better teach them to sail paint and cook clean lol work for way . No way to sneak drugs or alcohol . Big boats are dumping shit I bet
Too many adds
So didn't need the music! Great video otherwise
What a sell!
