Explore Sailing Voyages in French Polynesia 🇵🇫

Quite dicey leaving Toau pass with a strong outgoing current against 15kts wind but survived the steep waves. Once clear of the corner of Toau we basically had quite light deep downwind run the whole way. Very comfortable at least. Bianca was aboard for her first ocean passage.

Sunny, S wind at 12kts Skinny water. I followed another 40’ cat in because the GPS on my iPad and iPhone locked up.

Great overnight sail between atolls. Light winds (8-13 knots) just forward of the beam. Very calm sea state. Good passage.

Quick sail in a fresh breeze across the atoll to secure better shelter for the coming wind shift. Beautiful anchorage.

Motor sail to NW pass anchorage for a short stop to drift snorkel the pass. I maneuvered the 2 dinghies while 5 people drift snorkel. Perfect conditions, beautiful spot.
