Welcome back to WE|Sail! We sailed into Minerva Reef, not expecting to spend 10 days here, but sometimes weather dictates the adventure! While waiting for a better weather window to continue our passage, we found ourselves "stuck" in what can only be described as a sailor's paradise. We explore the beauty of Minerva Reef, share what life is like in such a remote spot, and reflect on the challenges (and joys!) of waiting out the weather. From stunning underwater adventures to the unique challenges of being anchored in the middle of the Pacific, this unexpected stop turned out to be a highlight of our journey.
Welcome back to WE|Sail! Sailing to New Zealand didn’t go exactly as planned! After leaving Tonga, we made a pit stop at the remote and stunning Minerva Reef—but Mother Nature had other plans. Stuck in this atoll, we’re waiting for the perfect weather window to continue our journey south. Join us as we navigate weather forecasts, unexpected challenges, and life in one of the most isolated places on Earth. Will we make it to New Zealand? Or will this detour turn into a longer stay?
Welcome back to WE|Sail! This weeks episode, we hit the ground running and get right back to boat work after a 6 week, 30,000 mile trip around the world. We are preparing for a big passage from Tonga to New Zealand. We have things to fix, things to ready and crew to welcome before we set sail on the next big adventure.
