MISTAKES Were MADE – SAILING Bora Bora to Fiji [PT. 2]

Mistakes were made on our sail from Bora Bora to Fiji. We pushed the envelope and our winged spinnaker and lines ended up in the water. Overcoming a situation like this at sea can be quite dangerous. Lines wrapped around the prop, a heavy sail to retrieve, but somehow luck was on our side. Join us as we continue our 1900 mile ocean passage, sharing what life on the open ocean is really like.

Seawind 1600 Catamaran – Performance in Light Wind on a Sail to Key West

If you’re new here, Harbors Unknown is the story of two dreamers, Kristin & Fabio Potenti, & our dog Yoda. We’re a small family living aboard our catamaran, SV Wanderlust, sailing to Harbors Unknown. Exploring the world, connecting with people and places through the local cuisine, and showing how great food can be cooked on a boat with limited space and resources. Seeking to balance the desire to explore and travel to beautiful, remote locations while leaving no footprint, minimizing the Hawthorne effect of the observers who change the environment she or he observes.

We hope to inspire people and showcase the possibility of living an alternative lifestyle that provides freedom and fulfillment, all while keeping it real. Sharing the trials and tribulations of living off-grid, acknowledging the discomfort of detoxing from the modern world, finding pleasure in the subtleties of nature and joy in simplicity. Attempting to understand what makes the world tick and tock but also trying to gain a deeper comprehension of ourselves and identify what will satisfy that hunger for further exploration, for purpose. We have set off on our voyage sailing around the world! Subscribe now to join our sailing adventure.
