After weeks of exploring the remote atolls of the Tuamotus, it was finally time to sail to Moorea in French Polynesia.
What looked like a straightforward overnight passage quickly reminded us that the ocean always has the final say. Rough seas, seasickness, and an uncomfortable sail tested the enti...
We thought sailing around the world would be all about the destinations.
The turquoise lagoons.
The remote islands.
The adventure.
But somewhere along the way, we realized the places weren't what changed us the most.
It was the people.
In this episode, we spend our final days in beautiful T...
We crossed an ocean dreaming about places like Fakarava. World-famous dives, crystal-clear lagoons, black pearls, and remote islands were everything we had imagined.
But somewhere along the way, we realized this journey was changing more than our location. It was quietly changing the way we measured...
We crossed the Pacific dreaming about one incredible experience: Fakarava's legendary Wall of Sharks.
Every year around the June full moon, thousands of groupers gather in Fakarava, French Polynesia, to spawn. Where thousands of fish gather, hundreds of sharks follow, creating one of the most f...
The Tuamotus are some of the most beautiful islands we've ever visited—but living this far from everything comes with challenges most people never see.
In this episode, we explore life in the remote atolls of French Polynesia. From provisioning and planning an overnight passage, difficult ancho...
After crossing the Pacific Ocean and spending weeks in the Marquesas, we finally arrived at one of the places we've dreamed about for years: the Tuamotus.
In this episode, we leave Nuku Hiva behind and make the 500 nautical mile passage to Raroia Atoll. After carefully timing our arrival throu...
After returning to Taiohae Bay on Nuku Hiva, we thought we'd only be staying a few more days before continuing west toward the Tuamotus Islands.
The route was planned. The boat was nearly ready. All we needed was the right weather window.
What started as an unexpected delay quickly turned into ...
Let’s get the heck out of here‼️ Join us for a 10 day sail from French Polynesia to Tonga— a passage we’ve been looking forward to for quite some time… 😍 The journey begins with a beautiful overnight trip from Tahiti to Bora Bora, where we tackle some chores in preparation for our departure and soak...
We've loved the remoteness and isolation of the Tuamotus - it's amazing being able to focus on our family and our time together. We leave Tahanea behind and have rough seas on our way to Fakarava. We tour a pearl farm and see the Topaka lighthouse. We sail to Tahiti but not without havi...
We've loved the remoteness and isolation of the Tuamotus but we are needing to get to civilization because we are running out of food! We have 4 kids to feed and we need to provision ASAP. We navigate some tricky cuts in and out of the atolls of the Tuamotus and find buried treasure in Tahane...
Daniel says problems come in threes and that is proving true this week. Daniel repairs or replaces everything from cabin fans to our dinghy carburetor to our windlass. We even lose our plug to our dinghy! We are thousands of miles from any major land mass so Daniel Brown has to improvise, adapt.....
This week we sail the 400nm from Fatu Hiva to Raroia - our first atoll in the Tuamotus. We go through our first entrance pass into the lagoon, which can be dangerous, and slowly make our way dodging bommies through the atoll. We fish, hunt crabs, and spend our time eating coconuts and hanging wit...
After completing our haul-out and sail drive repair in Tahiti, we set off on an easy two-day passage to the Tuamotus, with calm seas and no wind. Partway, we received a weather update: a storm system with lightning and high winds was expected to hit the Tuamotus just as we arrived. So, we decided to...
Our adventure in French Polynesia takes an unexpected turn when we discover severe damage to our sail drive shaft during what we thought would be a quick and simple seal change. 😩 It took two trips to the USA and thousands of dollars to get the parts we needed and make the repair— a consequence of s...
After deciding to leave French Polynesia 6 months earlier than we had initially planned, it seemed like everything was lining up perfectly for us to make a last-minute trip to New Zealand ahead of cyclone season. Unfortunately, our weather window disappeared in a matter of hours, ultimately forcing ...
Join us as we prepare for a last-minute passage to New Zealand before cyclone season begins in the South Pacific. We’ve had a memorable experience in French Polynesia, and we are looking forward to what comes next!
