Renaming a Boat and Making a teak table! solo sailing boating yachting sailing for beginners
October 16, 2020 by Pacific Solo | Language: EN Play Time: 00:11:02 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
While “Pacific Solo” refers to my eventual solo effort to cross the Pacific and pass-through “Nemo North,” there is no way I’d be able to set sail without the group behind me that has been encouraging me and helping me learn. (And if you’re reading this, I count you among that group! Your support is invaluable.)
For this episode, I’m shining the spotlight on four friends who have been hands on in helping me over the months. It includes a Renaming Ceremony, building a teak table, boat clean up and kayaking around Bowron Lake Circuit in Canada!
Enjoy the episode, everyone!
Oh and thanks to Tiffany Dawn Sheppard for the Bowron Loco Footage!!! Brilliant

Pacific Solo
Hi, I`m Lowell, a 67-year-old rookie sailor, and a never-too-later! I preparing myself for the biggest challenge of my life: a solo journey across the North Pacific. I am a Canadian living in Japan, and in 2019, I purchased Wahine, a 1988 Gib Sea 402. I moved on board while she was moored in Tokyo. In March 2021, I terminated my contract with the Marina and have been cruising Japan full time since gaining valuable experience all the while working remotely from the boat. Wahine is my home, my studio, and my lab. Join me on my learning voyage around Japan, trying to prepare myself for Pacific Solo. If you want to see where I am please go to my website and click on the Where`s Wahine Button at https://www.pacificsolo.com Also, if you are a fellow never-too-later check out www.nevertoolateacademy.com PSThe History Channel asked if they follow me into various remote ports for a new series called Dare to Dream. The pilot airs in Japan July 24th at 8pm.
