Solo sailing to Tahiti in French Polynesia where my husband joins me - Ep. 197

Join me as I sail from the breathtaking Fakarava in the Tuamotus Atolls to the vibrant island of Tahiti. This adventure is filled with unexpected challenges, from a nighttime tiller pilot breakdown to battery issues. But that's just part of the journey! Experience the mix of adventure, stunning landscapes, and the real ups and downs of sailing life.
I'll take you on a wonderful tour around the island while I wait for my husband Mark to arrive. He’s bringing a suitcase full of essential supplies for the boat, though his second suitcase takes an extra three days to join us.
Let's embark on this unforgettable journey together. Please subscribe to my channel if you like my video. Thanks!
My name is Jacqueline Evers. My sailboat is a 27 foot Grinde called Loveworkx. As of 1st July 2023 I am on my solo circumnavigation from The Netherlands.

Een paar jaar geleden was ik op Tahiti en zeilde ik een paar dagen mee met Pierre op zijn ‘Stardust’ naar o.a. Moorea en Huahine (ook een aanrader!). Het is mijn ultieme droom om ooit zeilend in FrPo te wonen! ❤ Heerlijke beelden. Geniet!

[@sailingloveworkx]

Hi Elmo. Wat leuk om te horen. Ja Moorea en Huahine waren prachtig. Ik ben benieuwd of je droom uitkomt. Klinkt prachtig!

[@Stevie671]

Your videos always so nicely paced. No drama, so I can just relax. You are an inspiration.

[@sailingloveworkx]

Thanks so much!

Mooi allemaal, hoor! Je doet t top en je lijkt steeds meer in t avontuur te groeien!

[@sailingloveworkx]

Dat is leuk om te horen!

[@edwinflynn9744]

You have inspired me to write a song about life. I called it "We Travel on the Same Old Road." Of course that is not what you are doing. You have spun off the same old road and are now enjoying your life to the fullest. Cheers

[@sailingloveworkx]

So nicely said. Thanks.

First safety! When "wing and wing" Use a preventer! That boom could ruin your day in a flash. You have a smart husband! He fly there! Smile~

[@Mareeeike92]

If you look closely, you can see that she has a preventer fixed berween the boom and the bow.

[@rolfsvensson5777]

@@Mareeeike92 OK! Thank you! (I pad).

[@sailingloveworkx]

@rolfsvensson5777 Yes my husband is smart! I always have a preventer on my boom, but the colour is light grey so you might have missed it.

Dat heet hosen 😂😂. Fijn dat Mark je komt vergezellen, maar eerst opruimen dus 😊

Hi Linda. Goed je hier weer te zien! Ja klopt. Met een kleine boot is het continue opruimen. De spullen van de een naar de andere kant.

[@heinhermans4532]

Hoi. Ik ben Hein. Afgelopen tijd 3 kwart van je flogs bekeken. Prachtig hoor. Ik ben er soms heel stil van. Je leest iets over een zeezeiler (2x) En ik denk; dat is Henk de Velde. ruclips.net/video/4QG5QWu08UM/видео.html Die heeft ook een eenzame weg gegaan. Noem het een proces of door ontwikkeling. Maar een bijzonder boek blijft het.(zwaaien naar Bluff) Bedoelde je die? Nog een goede voortzetting. Ik ben benieuwd naar je volgende avonturen. Groetjes.

[@waltergroeneveld67]

Ze leest "De horizon zeilde mee, dag na dag" van Herman Jansen (de eerste Nederlander die solo rond de wereld zeilde).

[@sailingloveworkx]

Dank je Hein. Erg leuk om te horen. Ter nagedachtenis van Henk de Velde is een podcast opgenomen 'Wat blijft'. Daar heb ik aan meegewerkt en toen ook meteen maar al zijn boeken gelezen. Dat was voor mij ook emotioneel, omdat ik kon invoelen hoe het zou kunnen zijn met heftige zeeen en alleen in de storm. www.nporadio1.nl/podcasts/wat-blijft/87158/28-zeezeiler-henk-de-velde-12-januari-1949-3-november-2022

[@sailingloveworkx]

Dank voor de aanvulling Walter. Ja dat klopt helemaal.

[@heinhermans4532]

@@sailingloveworkxOok toevallig. Ik heb het beluisterd. Naast het venomeen de Velde ook hoe jij daar je dingen uit haalt. Mooi verwoord.
