In this episode, we take a break from boat work to explore Tahuata in the Marquises (French Polynesia). Thauata is the neighbor island to Hiva Ova and is even a bit more exotic to us than Hiva Ova. Dolphins and gigantic manta rays, sharks and so much to discover. We do some hiking and even play with...
In this episode, we are trying to modify the autopilot setup and address one of the problems that have been ongoing ever since I bought BE FREE.
I know lots of you guys wanted more details so this video is more detailed than normal and even some animated illustrations to visualize things.

After lots of preparation, we finally set sail from Panama to cross the Pacific Ocean on our Leopard 47 catamaran. Things start out well as we catch a couple of fish and fly our spinnaker in the light winds but eventually we get stuck in the doldrums and the engine has to take over. We provisioned h...
After spending a little bit too long in the country that we loved so much, we were fined for overstaying our visa and given a strict deadline to leave the country with only 7 days notice. That’s not a lot of time to prepare for a 4000nm ocean crossing!
We rushed around Panama City for a week, buyin...
In this episode, we are sailing to Hiva Ova to clear into French Polynesia. We soon discover we had not done our homework properly and got quite a surprise. Without a long stay visa we now only get 90 days here. Same rules for Schengen and EU citizens. We meet a Norwegian couple that has just cross...
Welcome to our bumper episode as we transit through the Panama Canal from the Caribbean Sea to the Pacific Ocean. It was an incredible day with an early start but we are so grateful to everyone who helped us tackle the seventh modern wonder of the world and arrive safely on the other side in our lit...
After the anchor was down in Fatu Hiva not only were we greeted welcome by old friends, but were almost choked by how bad BE FREE was looking after all the water splash for so many days. We take an express tour of the island to the waterfall, enjoy local hospitality, and even do some trading for fru...
Finally, we are setting sail into the Pacific pointing our nose towards the Marquises in Polynesia. It's a 4000 nautical miles long sail we gonna do nonstop before dropping our anchor outside Fatu Hiva if everything goes as planned. This is a big moment when a long-lasting dream comes true and ...

Sailing and schedule is a very bad combination and our race against the clock before our visa expired was exhausting. We tried to fix and prepare as much as possible before our longest sail ever before we finally could check out of Panama. On a boat, it's always something and of course, we had ...
Welcome to another update from Elixir's voyage!
This is the second half of our week-long sailing passage from Costa Rica, to Chiapas in Mexico.
Our spell of light winds was finally broken, when a big black cloud floated over the horizon, bringing wind, rain, and a lot of lightning.
It was a...
In this episode we share some hints about anchoring in Panama, our experience at the Pacific side and even take you with us to Isla Taboga. Unfortunately there have recently been some brutal encounters between sailors and pirates in Panama again. Already to episodes outside Las Perlas and one at the...
We have a huge decision to make. We’ve been sailing west from the Lesser Antilles but now we’ve reached Panama…should we go North and complete the loop around Mexico, Cuba and the Bahamas or should we continue West through the Panama Canal and across the Pacific Ocean? Where would you go??
If you...

We finally got our StarLink delivered as some of the last-minute shipments before we set sail into the pacific. Our dinghy was almost destroyed after using the worst dinghy dock ever and experienced some challenges with the huge difference in tidal waters on the Pacific side. After moving the naviga...

In this episode we are unbelievably lucky to get our hands on an identical second hand radar as the broken one. What’s the odds for that? We are also celebrating Gee’s birthday and having fun with our beautiful neighbors. One step closer for the canal crossing and lots of good help from Gee now as s...
