#1 A Hard Passage Lessons Learned - Sailing From New Zealand To Tubuai Austral Islands
November 23, 2020 by Sailing Emerald Steel | Language: EN Play Time: 00:10:11 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
In this vid we share our passage from New Zealand to Tubuai, Austral Islands. We chose to take the southern route in the higher latitudes where we picked up the westerlies to make almost 2000 miles of easting before we turned North towards our destination. By taking the longer and harder route we accomplished our goal while our friend chose the direct route and never made the destination instead ending up in the Cook Islands. We experienced several gales and a storm and also tell about our experience with our failed autopilot. Come and join us on our journey… Hope you enjoy the old footage😊

Sailing Emerald Steel
LIVING THE DREAM ON A LOW BUDGET For 30 YEARS!! We gave up many of the trappings of a materialistic world in exchange for freedom from entanglements .This channel is more then just about sailing... It's about 2 young people that fell in love and worked hard to accomplish their dream. After building our sailboat we sailed off into the sunset. 30 + years later we are still living our dream! Come sail with us! Explore exotic places and see how we made it possible. We've lived off the grid for the last 30 years for no more then poverty wages. We built Emerald Steel and have been living aboard and cruising most of the time since her completion in 1987. Suzie did all of the welding and Jules did all the cutting, grinding and fitting. We were 23 and 36 years old at the beginning of our project in 1985.
