Ep 59. In this episode Wave Rover is only 100Nm off the coast of Canada but with no wind she can't make any way. I encounter 2 whales, a cow and calf, just as the breeze begins to fill in. The shearwaters behave in a strange manner as they prefer to run after Wave Rover than fly. If you are wo...
Am I fit enough for a solo crossing of the Pacific? ( solo sailing )
Last episode, I discussed what I'm asking from my boat, SV Wahine, and if she's safe enough to get me across the Pacific on my solo crossing. It's only fair she ask the same of me. I'm readying myself both physically and mentally, and there is much to do before I set off next J...
