Boat trips are hands-down the best way to go surfing — especially when you’re exploring remote island chains, like in the latest Maps to Nowhere adventure. Of course, boat trips come in all forms — from ultra-luxury mega yachts to… well, whatever it was that Ian Crane, Winter Vincent, and Beau Cram ended up on for this journey.<br /><br />“It’s like we’re camping,” Crane said. “On a boat.”<br /><br />“It took a bit to get used to,” Vincent added. “Tight living spaces. I woke up looking at Beau’s face every morning. But once you settle into it, boat life is sick.”<br /><br />The trio endured days of travel — planes, ferries, cars, buses — just to reach their starting point. From there, they spent more days motoring through atolls, islands, and reef passes, scoring no shortage of empty, perfect waves. Exactly the kind of surf Maps to Nowhere was made to celebrate.<br /><br />“A lot of people are stoked just surfing 20 minutes from their house,” said longtime surf filmer and photographer Nate Lawrence. “But some people I know are obsessed with travel — obsessed with finding uncrowded waves. I like my nice comfy bed at home, but I also love getting uncomfortable. Because when you come back, everything hits different. You appreciate the little things again — it’s like a reset, a calibration.”<br /><br /><br /><br />Executive Producers:<br />Ross Garrett<br />Johnny Marcon<br />Taylor Paul<br />Graham Nash<br />Taylor Divine<br />Kieran Horn<br />Garth Tarlow<br /><br />Produced by:<br />Nate Lawrence<br /><br />Edited by:<br />Sean Benik<br />Matt Hogan<br />Graham Nash<br /><br />Art Direction by:<br />Noa Emberson<br /><br />Filmed by:<br />Nate Lawrence <br />Timmy "Toes" Ridenhauer<br /><br />Creative Direction:<br />Taylor Paul<br />Graham Nash<br /><br />Forecasters:<br />Charlie Hutcherson<br />Kurt Korte<br />Kevin Wallis<br />Schaler Perry <br /><br />Surfers:<br />Winter Vincent<br />Beau Cram<br />Ian Crane<br /><br />Photography:<br />Nate Lawrence<br />Timmy "Toes" Ridenhauer<br /><br />Music Supervisor:<br />Tim Scanlin<br /><br />Music Credits:<br />“Panda Journey”<br />Performed by Good Lee<br />Courtesy of Dirty Laundry Music<br /><br />“Happens All The Time”<br />Performed by Spaceface<br />Courtesy of Dirty Laundry Music<br /><br />“Everything Is Anything”<br />Performed by Doombird<br />Courtesy of Castle Peak Music<br /><br />Thank You:<br />A special thanks to all the local people and guides whose support and expertise made this episode possible.<br /><br />-----------------------------------<br /> Subscribe: <br /> http://www.youtube.com/subscription_center?add_user=surfline<br /> <br /> Become a Surfline Premium Member: <br /> https://www.surfline.com/upgrade<br /> ----------------------------------
