Few behind the scenes... "You get to go shoot yachts, that's gotta be sooooo cool". It is. Very much so. BUT, it's not all glamourous. It's usually hot outside. Engine rooms are usually hotter. You have to squeeze in places you don't normally have to in houses. You sweat. Alot. My shirts are usually a wreck at the end. You have to catch your drone by hand because the boat is moving when you land. Sometimes, your finger gets in the way and gets a nice chunk sliced out (not the first time its happened). Sometimes you lose your drone altogether. Sometimes beds aren't made, or stuff has to be put away, or you drive 4 hours to Port Fourcheon only to find that all 3 of the engines will not start. Then there was the time on a shoot where and pods on the vessel stops working so you end up going through Perdido Pass backwards with no way to maneuver. Then there's times where everything goes according to plan and you can get 1 done, begin prepping the second one while Daniel Deaibes goes and does a sea trial, then come back and finish the 2nd one all before lunch. Each one is uniquely different and still one of the coolest things to get to do. 10 boats and about 45 houses in 2 weeks.
