*Abstract*
Holly and Ray, a couple sailing around the world on their catamaran Sabo, embark on a challenging journey across the Pacific Ocean. This video documents their first week at sea as they navigate through unpredictable weather conditions, including light winds and unexpected gusts. They share their experiences provisioning for the long passage, adjusting to life on board, and encountering the beauty of the open ocean.
*Summary*
*Preparation and Departure*
* 0:03 Introduction to Holly, Ray, and their catamaran Sabo, as they begin the Pacific leg of their circumnavigation journey.
* 0:34 After a month-long stay in Panama, they finally receive their visa for French Polynesia and begin final preparations for their 4,000 nautical mile passage.
* 1:16 The to-do list grows as their departure date approaches, including stocking up on non-refrigerated produce and other provisions.
* 3:37 They decide to depart despite a marginal weather window with light winds, knowing they may need to motor for a portion of the trip to the Galapagos Islands.
* 4:55 They estimate the passage to the Marquesas Islands will take around 26 days.
* 6:07 Friends host a farewell dinner for the couple before their departure.

*Life at Sea*
* 7:48 They successfully set sail with favorable wind conditions, enjoying the experience.

* 10:37 They encounter dolphins and enjoy a beautiful sunset on their first day at sea.
* 11:55 They adjust their sails for nighttime sailing, opting for a more conservative setup.
* 12:50 The next morning, they struggle with light winds and try different sail combinations to improve their speed.
* 13:34 They face a slow start to the day with minimal wind but remain patient, acknowledging the long journey ahead.
* 14:51 The wind picks up, allowing them to sail at a faster pace and enjoy the experience.

Thank you! Fair winds, following seas!
Thank you! :)
Another great video guys! We are following you from Oslo, Norway. Thank you for showing us Marina Vista Mar. We can only understand that this is a better option than staying in Panama City. It is particularly good that the provisions are so good. We look forward to the next update and wish you fair winds and safe sailing.
Wow, thank you! Norway has been on my travel bucket list for years! Glad you enjoyed the video, Vista Mar is also much more affordable than the marinas near PC. Cheers! :)
Thank you so very much and I wish you fair winds and all the best. Your videos are indeed like gold to me, very valuable, as I plan to sail the world on Lagoon 42 as well. So very interested in all the details and general as well.
Thank you and how exciting! Glad you found our channel. :)
As always a great video. Very exciting stuff for sure, and the dolphin shows amazing. Clearly all of your prep has paid off you make it look so easy. I have been reading the blog as well. Be safe
Failing to prepare is preparing to fail! So far all the work has been worth it. Thanks for following along, we love reading your comments. :)
Doldrums,then magic. 24-34 days, y'all might hate it times BUT y'all will never forget it!!!
Looking forward to the good, the bad and the uneventful!
Where there's birds usually fish.
Can’t believe we haven’t caught anything yet😩
that focaccia thoughh 😍
Sourdough focaccia is now a staple on Sabado😍🤤
Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching! :)
Aaaaaaaaand they're off ‼️🎉🙌🏻 This is going to be fun........BTW, there is diesel available in the Galapagos to top off your tanks. Just don't remember which island. Totally love Holly's method of food prepping. I'm in for chicken curry. See you next time. ✨ 🌊 💨 ⛵️ 🏝️ 👙 🌞 ✨
Thanks for watching! ⛵️🌊☺️
Someone should have some sort of video series where they explain and show you what sailing terms are and what it is. For instance motoring not everyone's going to know what that means in terms of sailing. Could me a neat and helpful series.
Not saying anything against your videos at all it's just a thought I had while I was watching this video. Thinking about how a lot of people are newbies and are probably going back and forth between UA-cam and Google to figure out what some terms mean or like parts of the vessels and things like that.
You're so right! It's hard to remember when we’re filming our everyday life and vocabulary, that we should probably explain more.
Great video! But I gotta ask, how did you get your longstay visa from Panama? Have heard that you had to ask for it from your country? Thanks.
If you’ve been out of your home country for an extended period of time, you can apply from Panama City, Mexico City, and I believe somewhere in Ecuador…
This is a great blog post about the various places you can apply from: www.jacarandajourney.com/fplongstayvisa
Uh... What's up with the baby wipes @1:02 y'all? Storks can still make it to French Polynesia you know... ;)
Haha! We just like to have clean asses🤷🏼♀️ No babies on board, but also no bidet!
Awesome usa sea😊❤️🇺🇸
