Step aboard for an unforgettable journey with Captain Chriss Thoma, a man whose life at sea is equal parts adventure, grit, and awe. Chris shares how a love of the ocean and a hunger for exploration carried him north to Alaska’s wild, untamed coastlines. From threading narrow island passages in the early morning fog to scanning the horizon for the spout of a humpback whale, every day brings a new story.
We’ll hear about the powerful pull of Alaska’s seasons, the challenges of navigating icy waters, and the quiet, humbling moments when nature steals the show — a pod of orcas on the hunt, a bald eagle swooping inches from the bow, sea otters floating like little rafts in the sun. For Chris, being captain isn’t just a job; it’s a front-row seat to one of the richest wildlife theaters on Earth.
Whether you’re drawn to the romance of maritime life, the raw beauty of Alaska, or the thrill of close encounters with wild creatures, Chris’s story will leave you inspired — and maybe plotting your own voyage north.
