The Full Story of a Viral Whale Capsizing

Speaking with the victim of an infamous viral whale encounter.

When he left with his good buddy Greg Paquette for a morning chasing stripers off the New Hampshire coast, Ryland Kenney had no idea that the Parker 21 they fished from was doomed. Nor, he reckons, did the feeding whale that inadvertently sunk their boat. On the Power & Motoryacht podcast, Senior Editor Chris Dixon takes a deep dive with Kenney to find out who he is, what went wrong, and what went right on a fateful, and viral New England morning.
