Good fun. Were you on the boat, or onshore? Thanks for the share.

Agree, looks like a follow mode and a little manual...is this true? Either way, that's awesome!
I live on the Gulf Coast and am absolutely terrified to fly over water.

Back in April 2018 my drone was at about 250 feet hovering on the beach line while I adjusted the camera to look at the sunrise with 97% battery when all of a sudden it dropped. The screen read critical battery error (or something similar) and she fell straight down, dead as the camera wasn't recording either. Landed on a dune and I never did find the camera. Luckily, DJI Care replaced the aircraft (UPS however lost it which is a whole other issue).

Since then, I have a huge fear or putting a drone over the water for fear of a battery failure and not being able to recover the drone...UH.

Totally manual control on that video.
The pause or slow down actually following the boat was me switching to sports mode

Thanks im still trying to learn a lot from the more experienced guys  on here ive never done drone videos before the p4p came along. Prior to that My flying was mainly take off hover and observe.
Now that the rules have changed ive been grounded from that for over a year now.
I used to fly as a spotter for local fire brigade looking for spot overs during controlled burns and as a lookout during wild fires.

Nice. What drone did you use to spot, or are you talking about helicopters etc? With fires being a problem during this drought all over the world, we need all the help we can get.
