SAILING THROUGH A VIOLENT STORM - SwT 161 - PART 2 NONSTOP 1500 MILES SOLO SAIL TAHITI - TONGA

Sailing through a violent storm is no joke and nothing you want. But sometimes you just have to deal with what you are given. And on this last leg towards Tonge King neptun did really put BE FREE and me on a test. I was facing a violent storm as defined by the Beaufort scale when it was above 55 knots of wind climbing towards 60. Both BE FREE and I managed fine but several yachts lost their rigg in this storm. I also crossed the deepest ocean I have ever sailed, and not only did I have to adjust my time again but even the calendar.

ABOUT THIS CHANNEL:
Sailing around the world in a Bavaria 55 Cruiser, making videos whenever we have time for it.
Even though this is season 6 on YouTube I did not make that many videos in the beginning. Before full-time sailing, I sailed several seasons in the Mediterranean prior to, and obviously also in Scandinavia. I have been traveling the world before and have also been an active regatta sailor. I had my first sailboat at age 7 and have been sailing ever since. Also, more than 10 years of experience in Search and Rescue at sea in Norway.
PLEASE BE KIND IN THE COMMENTS!
I’m just a normal person sharing my travel adventure through my eyes and experience from my perspective! Remember how I do things that might work for me but not for you. It might even not be the correct way to do things, and I don’t have the blueprint either. I’m not perfect and nobody is. The day I believe I know it all and don’t think I can learn new things I should go ashore.
