Field notes
The project uses a structured access-and-rejection format: select an experience, find the gatekeepers, make the pitch, and film the consequences. Its first proposed test is a weekday, repositioning trip, or promotional opening on Lake Michigan, with Chicago captains, brokers, marinas, and owners on the ask list. The homepage identifies two production roles and labels the yacht material as concept visuals rather than a completed episode.
