Finallly got my new Mavic Pro after three months waiting and caught a gorgeous winter day for my first flight with it! Found a tug boat to chase and while the music is garbage i think the vid is pretty okay. Let me know what you think!
 
That's pretty good for your first video with the Mavic. Were you actually on the tug?

Thanks, I was flying from land ~700M away, the guys on the tug looked to be taking photos of the sunset and then spotted my mavic and started shooting it.

I could see them, and thought maybe it was you. Were you flying right around where the ferry comes in? I would think it could get a little exciting with the float plane traffic around there!

Yea it gets busy at certain times of day, posted a NOTAM to the aerodrome operators and have a standing SFOC for the area ;)
