good morning
the maldives are so beautiful it's been an amazing experience being out here and i wanted to bring
you guys behind the scenes on what a typical day looks like for me on the boat i mean this morning
coffee as usual i'm usually up by first light i was up at 5am this morning and they always
have coffee out thank goodness and then it's time when the light comes out to fly drones
and usually after that sunrise capture we'll get onto the boat and it's been an exceptionally rocky
kind of day and i i've got my motion sickness patches and all the other stuff drama mean to
help me out but today we got onto the dhoni and dhoni is the name of the boat that takes us out
for dives smaller boat and we went out for a morning dive looking for mantas we went to a
cleaning station and a cleaning station is kind of a set place where they know manta has come to
to get cleaned by other fish and so we checked out the cleaning station dropped off some camera
underwater cameras with the manta truss research team and then we kind of cruised around me and the
one blue lotion team were capturing some beautiful content it wow it was a really beautiful dive
this trip is actually super flexible in terms of
where we're going because it all depends on where we are or not
seeing mantas so the larger boat the content max moved south super south we were probably
cruising for around two to three hours and during that time we had lunch and i felt very very sick
and now we've made it to this really beautiful location where
in the channels they often see mantas and
as soon as we drop the anchor down i sent the drone up and i actually ended up finding a manta
i think this is the furthest i've ever flown my drone
