Chris Davenport, Mark Abma and MSP are on the cruise of all cruises

Chris Davenport, Mark Abma, and a crew from Matchstick Productions are currently on the cruise of all cruises. They are on the 130-foot luxury yacht Ocean Explorer sailing up inlets along the coast of British Columbia, somewhere near the town of Seward. What makes this trip special, of course, is the A-star B2 helicopter parked on the stern, and the massive never-before-skied peaks that surround them. Davenport checked in with powdermag.com via satellite phone to give us the rundown of their first day on slope.
