Watch: Island FUN!
Huku Niva to Bora Bora via the Tuamotus!
Bon Jour from French Polynesia and S/V Hold Fast! Here I am in Nuku Hiva down from Los Angeles via La Cruz, Mexico. About 5000 nautical miles in. I had two great legs! LA to La Cruz was a great ride and the crossing from La Cruz to Nuku Hiva was pretty epic at 20 days! All that said I find myself solo at this point and heading into the most beautiful part of the trip. The atolls in the Tuamotus are next level! I am looking to head to Gambiers first then working my way up to the Society Islands. Meaning first leg down would be about is about a week at sea. I dont mind being alone but some how I feel greedy not sharing this beautiful thing. I am also making a documentary on the healing power of the ocean. 2006 45 foot boat, stacked, all safety, all fun... Must be positive, have time, easy on dietary restrictions, willing to share cook/clean and Vaxinated. Let’s see if its a fit. Drop me a DM. #circumnavigating #makingtheloop #exploring

Amazing start of a great journey
Hans and I joined the first part of Brian’s trip from L.A to Puerto Vallarta. Brain is an experienced sailor with immense love for the sea and sailing. We appreciate a lot the big importance he gives to safety onboard. The boat is well equipped with everything one can need for a long journey. Thanks for giving us the opportunity to learn from you and join this incredible adventure. We wish you safe travels and endless adventures to come!
