  • We've been sailing in the islands of French Polynesia for almost 2 months and there are so many reasons why we just don't want to leave atoll! See what I did there?
    We sail in the lagoon of our final Tuamotu before we head off to Tahiti and continue our adventures around the beautiful archipelagos. Our last stop brings us to a secret spot, with no one around we have found Eden all to ourselves.
    Join us on our sailing adventures throughout the Pacific Ocean!

    Guys you just gave me the visual of the South Pacific, in HD, that Delos could not so many years ago. My eyes were popping from my head, mouth open, and I was giggling like a child. The endless variations of blue water, the clarity of the water, the sea critters great and small. The footage you captured going down the break in the Atoll was breathtaking and matched everything my mind has dreamt up for the last 12 years. Thank you both for sharing and just so you know, even though you might think the footage may be boring, or you have seen it for a few months now, it whisks us all away if only for ~20min a week. Cheers and more snorkeling footage please...it's snowing in Chicago already

      Yes I did, one is a GoPro and the other is a DJI Osmo. Tried to get them color graded to match but both have two very different qualities. Still trying to decide what brand we like best!

    Hi guys! Have just stumbled across your channel and I have liked, subscribed and rung the bell! I have one question so far. @1:30; you are picked up a very, VERY large snap-shackle, one of which I have not seen the kind of ever before. Could you please chat more about this shackle and post a link in the description in a future episode (If you haven’t already done so in a previous episode. If you have, could you please post a link to this episode?)
    Many thanks and fair winds and following seas for all your future episodes. Kindest regards, Mr Michel Dawes

    • @WEsail
      @WEsail  Рік тому

      Ahh yes, it’s our anchoring shackle, it’s made by Mantus (like the anchor company that’s so well known) and it’s for catching mooring buoy lines, I modified it a little so it hooks on our chain… anyways, glad you found us, and thanks very much for taking the time to watch and comment!! CHEERS

    Your new sail looks like an asym but I see that you have it rigged with just one sheet. When you need to gybe it do you douse it and then re-deploy it on the other side of the forestay?

    In a wide-open place like that, why would someone anchor within a hundred meters of you when they could be far, far away and respect your privacy? To me, that's one of the joys of cruising - getting away from neighbors right up next to you. An area of several square kilometers has two boats in it and they're within hailing distance. Boo.
