Checking Out of Mexico Before Sailing Across the Pacific Ocean!

Welcome back to Breaking Waves, where we document our epic sail around the world in search of waves. Today’s episode is a whirlwind of excitement as we prepare for our final checkout process before crossing the mighty Pacific Ocean en route to French Polynesia. This journey has been filled with false starts and obstacles that put our financial limits to the test.

As we recount our experiences, Ben and Ally take us through the last leg of their Mexican stay as they get ready for an adventurous ocean crossing filled with endless surfing opportunities.

A Bittersweet Goodbye

The couple initially feels nervous about checking out with Customs, but soon realize that some things are smoother than expected. Amidst their preparations, Ally is getting a new MacBook to aid in her video editing for the passage ahead, an investment they know will take them time to recover financially from.

Embracing the Mexican culture right up till the last minute, the duo spends quality time at Walmart and considers journaling throughout their Pacific Ocean sail. The pressure is palpable as Ben and Ally realize that with each step they take, they are edging closer to leaving for this life-altering voyage.

Final Days in Mexico

Fueled by their enthusiasm, the pair quickly ties up loose ends – provisioning and fueling – while not forgetting to capture some final Mexican moments with their friends. As they prepare to set sail, there’s a sense of longing for their Mexico cruising home but an undeniable excitement to begin their journey across the South Pacific.

Set Sail!

On their final day in Mexico, Ben and Ally share bittersweet farewells with friends as they prepare to leave. With one last surf session in Mexico under their belt, the duo picks up a friend Peter who is sailing with them for moral support and headsets out on the open ocean.

Their boat, equipped with newly-deployed sails that aid them even in light winds, glides effortlessly through the water. The feeling of accomplishment fills Ben and Ally’s hearts as they realize that everything has finally come together for their long-awaited dream voyage.

Setting Sail into the Unknown

The adventure of a lifetime is just around the corner – an ocean filled with potential challenges and uncertainties. But as Ben says, ‘there will always be a risk to doing anything worthwhile’. With that mindset, they set off on this vast journey towards French Polynesia. The beauty and tranquility found while anchored at night give them peace in their final moments before departure.

A New Adventure Beckons

With the excitement of crossing the equator and a wave hello to King Neptune on their horizon, Ben and Ally are eager to discover what awaits them as they sail into unknown waters. As land recedes further behind them, only one question remains: ‘How do you feel about crossing the ocean on a boat tomorrow?’

The couple may not have a clear answer, but there’s no denying the thrill of setting out on an expedition filled with endless possibilities. Tune in to their future episodes where they continue this journey of discovery – both physically and emotionally.
