In the show, Ryan McVinney travels across America uncovering local boating traditions and on-the-water culture, meeting up with local boaters who share tales of cherished pastimes and legendary lore from their neck of the woods.

The first three episodes travel to Cape Cod, Massachusetts, Florida’s Panhandle region[8] and Wilmington, North Carolina[9] alongside a host of celebrated boaters, including Brian Kelley[10] of Florida Georgia Line[11], Netflix’s Outer Banks creator Jonas Pate[12], legendary champion powerboat racer Reggie Fountain and many more.[13]
Season One features more episodes that dive further into American boating traditions[14] as McVinney drops anchor in towns across the Southwest, Pacific Northwest and up to the great state of Alaska[15].
The show was awarded a 2022 Viddy Award[16] for outstanding video creative in the Culture and Lifestyle category for Long Form Videos.[17]
