After crossing 4,000 miles of the Pacific Ocean we arrive in one of the most remote island groups in the world. Marquesas, French Polynesia. With its steep volcanic hills rising straight out of the ocean this is definitely one of the most spectacular views we have ever seen.

Cruising Meraki was there THIS year (2023) and a large rock came crashing down coming very close to Kate's parents. There are risks everywhere... buses while you cross the street...

I could not wait for your next EP. For one I am glad you are well. Secondly, no other cruising vlogs capture the essence of cruising like the both of you. I am so happy for you. I am without a sailboat at the moment for the first time in 15 years . Cant wait to get back out on the sea! I have learned much from your experiences, keep them coming. God Bless and fair winds.

The Quartermaster* This was our first anchorage in our Pacific crossing from the Galopacos in 2008! We loved the island and spent 3 weeks there. Point of interest: Our 1996 Beneteau 40 C/C had a Yanmar4jh2e diesel. I noticed when you were swapping out your battery, on the bulkhead to the left in your e gine room was a Volvo Penta fuel filter. That is the exact same fuel filter that came with our boat, only ours was mounted in the aft cabin under the queen size bed. That was a very peculiar spot for such an important filter. I replaced it with a duel Raycor 500 unit and mounted it in the engine room with a manual lift pump. It worked out great! Thanks for another terrific video!

Oh wow, I never expected to see this amazing island on KZfaq. Stopped at Nuku Hiva during my once in a lifetime around the world trip in 2018, what a beautiful place. The scenery with those mountains is absolutely stunning, you can only appreciate it fully in real life. So remote as well. The locals loved having visitors, rare to feel so welcomed in these modern times. This was our first port of call after leaving Panama so it was a first taste of the Pacific Islands for me. Memory rekindled seeing that archway at the cathedral, after I'd explored the cathedral and its gardens I was chased and told off by a rather indignant cockerel as I walked away from the arch! We were only there for a day and a half unfortunately, could have done with a much longer stay. Wishing you fair winds and following seas for your adventures.

Could've knocked me over with a feather! First video in FOREVER! Whew, gorgeous island & I must admit that I don't understand the 'family invitation' for a meal to visit the absolutely huge, towering falls? But, it was modestly priced & they were incredibly giving with local fruits, along with (I'm guessing) a delicious tuna lunch! Sam- you seemed a little uncomfortable with those cliffs overhanging you- I TOTALLY get it! Insanely beautiful- I think one just needs to go there to actually understand the stunning nature of the location. Did you throw Rob overboard? He is kind of shy, but- after all of the travel to Nuka Hiva- he seems to have disappeared? Hope he was able to get home safely, or is still on good terms with you folks. Can't wait to see if the adventure is still on- or, is the draw of home being so much closer drawing you in? It's a long journey either way... Look forward to new content! Glad to see you BOTH, fingers crossed & safe travels on your incredibly seaworthy ocean going vessel started by Beneteau and finished by you.

Haha yeah it’s been a little while but on a roll with the editing and plenty to come. Rob got a flight to Tahiti for some surf and then home to Australia 🇦🇺. Lots of videos on the way as we make our way through French Polynesia 🤙

Never put the neg battery cable on first

@pibble3962 11 ай бұрын

Please remember: “Positive off first, Positive on fi 10:45 rst.” This reduces the chance of sparks. Lead- acid batteries produce hydrogen gas which is flammable. I saw a spark on a battery lift a 325 pound mechanic off the ground, break his glasses and spray him with battery acid. Pretty far from a good time. Thanks for your sharing your amazing experiences.

Hey, Barbados was epic. The A-frame and right point were right next to each other just a couple miles north of Carlisle Bay on the west coast. Don’t remember the name but there is a nice bar there easy to find. 🤙
