We are aboard the Masonic, a bottom longline commercial fishing vessel, off the coast of Alaska near Kodiak Island. The owner captain is Mark Lundsten. 

I’m reading segments from Eye of the Albatross, Visions of Hope and Survival by Carl Safina.

“As Mark is explaining, the main threat to albatrosses now, the longlines, could be solved on boats worldwide. All it takes is a willing captain – as I’m here to learn. Soon we will see what success looks like.”
