    Been watching all of your vehicles and they have definitely ignited a fire inside to explore sailing once again. Dad used to own a sailboat when I was young and now-a-days he has a powerboat that is small enough to take out on a local chain of lakes near us or out to the ocean if he would like. Although I love his boat i'd like to keep the tradition of sailing in my family alive and plan to take some courses near me. Stay safe brotha!

    I have a Tomking TK144FC four stroke outboard. It's 53 CC's, 23 LBS, reaches 16 inches, and has an aluminum pop. You remove the flywheel and file the crank notch to set the ignition close to top dead center = cooler better idle. Change the centrifugal clutch springs to light ones so you can troll. Many aluminum propellers do much better filed and sanded with a hand finish on the leads and trailing edges of the blades. Sand the inside of the handle and you can stick a long pole in it for steering. You can probably pick up a TK144FC for less than $300 new. I won't touch a water cooled motor or two stroke, nor leave gas in it.

That is a lot of glass work needed on the haul. Glad you are back, I didn't know you left for a few months for the cyclone season. Keep rolling Garrett. You're doing great and these vids bring back so many younger sailing trips!! My dad love French Polynesia! Glad you have a friend too. Solo is ok, but longer voyages are nice to have the extra hand on board. I am sure you will meet many island hoppers too that would help on overnighters! Enjoy!

    Be careful my dad has a yacht and he never goes anywhere at night. He always finds a safe cove or harbour to set out a stern line and drop anchor. That way if a storm ⛈ rolls in or 🌊 you’re safe. Happy for you man❤ also Jesus is real cause I died and heaven is real. Make sure you believe in Jesus dying for your sins.
    Tip: Sleep at night and always check the weather and find a spot to be hidden from the open ocean when travelling. Have a routine of dinner, relaxing and sleep. Travel in the mornings and afternoons. So know where you want to go on the map. Plan out places with safe coves and harbours you can travel to. Once you arrive, set anchor and stern line. Relax and sleep. Stay a couple days if you want. If you want to continue to travel, then you would pull up anchor and head to the next destination and repeat the process. That way you don’t get into an accident in the middle of the night in the ocean and sleep deprived. Prayers

    Kudos. I did the Annapurna Circuit 25 years ago, when I was 20 with zero hiking experience and no knowledge awailable on the Internet. Still today I remember this first Himalaya exploit fondly and remember it at hard times, thinking I had the guts and strength to do this as a very young girl. I can also do what lies agead of me, may it be jobrelated, personal or health. I wish you all the best.

    Well, interesting Pacific crossing, just wondering who you’re traveling with, is she crew or a friend, and what kind of experience she has in sailing?
