After receiving some bad news about our engine last week, we decide to sail to a nearby island to gain a little perspective and try and figure out what to do next. We explain our three options - to replace our engine, to rebuild it or to run it into the ground. The first two require money - a lot of money that we don't have - but we need to figure out a way to be able to afford these repairs or we can't keep sailing.
We hike to the top of a ridge of the island of Tahuata and decide to sail north to the main island of Nuku Hiva. It's a short overnight sail but we're hit with a whole bunch of squalls and see sustained 40 knots for a while!
We don't like asking for money but with our current situation we're not sure what else to do. If yo enjoy our videos and you'd like to see us continue, please do consider joining us on Patreon, even if just for a little while (www.patreon.com/redseas) or if you're able to send us a tip, we're saving for our engine fund over there too.
If you're unable to support us financially, please do recommend our channel to all your friends - word of mouth is what helps us grow and the more people who are supporting our channel, the more likely we will be able to continue. Thank you for all your comments and messages - it really does mean the world to us to know that we're not alone out here.

We're Iain and Brioni, The Reds, a couple of redheaded Scots who sold everything we own and moved halfway round the world to buy a boat that we could call home.

We love to travel, we love the sea and we love sharing inspiring stories about inspiring people. So hit subscribe and join us on this adventure!

Could we LIVE HERE? (Hidden Fiji caves!)
In all our travels, we have always loved exploring new places and visiting islands that are hardly touched by tourism. We've been incredibly lucky to have experienced some wonderful places around the world but this island is a bit different. Have we actually found our new home? Should we think ...
SHE FOUND HER CALLING!
Iain and Brioni Cameron of Sailing Red Seas navigate their Leopard 47 catamaran Indioko on an overnight passage from Totoya to Kadavu, Fiji, freediving with giant pelagic manta rays in the Great Astrolabe Reef.
WE DON’T KNOW what’s next!
Life on a boat always throws us surprises - sometimes we make plans, and sometimes they get thrown back in our faces. We spent weeks sailing against the trade winds to reach the furthest corner of the remote Lau islands in Fiji and had an absolute blast exploring the villages and beaches we discover...
BOAT UPGRADE everyone will LOVE!
We are making brand new cockpit cushions to transform this area on our boat into something that is far more comfortable and practical...and it's been a long time coming after 6 years living onboard! We just spent all our money on a refit earlier this year so we've had to come up with some ...
Our BOAT just got BIGGER!
We are sailing on a tight budget after our huge refit earlier this year and so when it came to transforming the cockpit of our Leopard catamaran, we had to get a little creative. I wanted to replace all our cushions and Iain wanted to transform our table, but we don't have the thousands of doll...
