Solo sailing to the atol Kauehi in the Tuamotus part of French Polynesia - Ep. 195

After lots of preparations I sail for 5 days from Marquesas to Tuamotus. My second stop in Tuamotus Atols is Kauehi.
From the magnificent beaches to the rich and unique biodiversity beneath the waves, the Tuamotu Islands are a paradise on earth. The 76 atolls are spread over a surface of more than 1.2 million square miles where Cast Away or Robinson Crusoe could still come to life.

Can you actually, dear Jacqueline, process all these impressions? An incredible amount has happened since the beginning of this "life voyage". These are very beautiful, honest and inspiring videos. Congratulations, it's a real pleasure to follow you. All the best and good luck.

[@sailingloveworkx]

Hi Thomas. Your words are very true. I think being for longer times at sea help me to process these impressions. Also making videos help me to do that. Looking back, for example to Portugal, so much has happened.

[@RobinMuirhead]

Keep following your heart and soul

[@sailingloveworkx]

[@katamaranscom]

Can we have more salutes please! (1:00). Another great video, an inspiration to all

[@sailingloveworkx]

Thanks!

[@peterschouten-ys8yr]

Hi. Obviously you are still enjoying yourself. May I recommend that at the first opportunity you install roller reefing for the heads ail. You will be surprised how much more efficient the boat will be and a lot safer being single handed. You don't need to have sunprotection on the sail when adapting your existing heads ails. Easier to take them down when you stay somewhere for longer. Hereby you don't destroy the shape of the sail with a heavy thick cover along the leach and foot.
Cheers Peter.

[@sailingloveworkx]

Thanks for your tips!

[@walterelmore1017]

love the real time sailing views

[@sailingloveworkx]

Thank you! Looking forward to all your lovely comments

[@SmihammarNo]

Interesting and inspiring to follow you. Greetings from a Norwegian boatbuilder and sailor, who has just bought his first Grinde.

[@sailingloveworkx]

Thank you and congratulations!

[@zzp1]

(niet) Onvoorstelbaar dat je al zovèr bent! Er staat wel een zware stroming zo te zien. Mijn vrienden vertrekken komend jaar. Ben intussen met hun boot bezige, mijn vroegere GK 29. Zo te zien heb je stroom mee. Happy sailing en take care!

[@sailingloveworkx]

Dank je. Leuk dat je ze helpt met de voorbereidingen. Ja het is op een bepaalde manier ‘gewoon’ om steeds weer verder te zeilen en op een andere manier ook ‘onvoorstelbaar’ dat ik hier ben.

[@johnlaband770]

Looking forward to your videos. Good luck.

[@sailingloveworkx]

Thanks very much! Looking forward to all your lovely comments

Merci por votre réponse

[@bernardgroenveld1755]

Mooi

[@sailingloveworkx]

Dank je

[@alfreddaniels3817]

Now that is remote ! Only coralsands like the Maldives. Do they have no difficulty getting enough rain to provide them with drinkingwater ?

[@sailingloveworkx]

It is unbelievably remote. They collect rainwater in big black barrels. They seem to be ok.

[@josephpotterf9459]

Thanks.

[@sailingloveworkx]

Thank you!

[@nicodenhertog]

Prachtig daar! Mooie video weer❤. Ben even nieuwsgierig. Heb je ook radar aan als je slaapt of alleen op AIS?

[@sailingloveworkx]

Dank je Nico! Ik heb geen radar. Mijn AIS alarm staat altijd aan. En daarnaast kijk ik vooruit op Predictwind die AIS op grotere afstand op mijn route weergeeft

[@EL-ln8ei]

Hi there, maybe I missed it in previous video but do you have a proper shade to use? At least when you are at anchor or mooring?

[@sailingloveworkx]

Hi hi. That’s a good question. I have different possibilities to create shade on my boat.

[@sannebast]

Ha Jaqueline,wat een super leuk filmpje! We krijgen helemaal heimwee nu we er naar kijken 😅. En waren dat Erwin en Lambrini op de foto? 😁
Lieve groetjes uit Trinidad,
Sanne en Marijn

[@sailingloveworkx]

Ja precies! Ze hadden het nog over jullie en over de hond. Groetjes

[@Pieter6589]

Ziet er nog hetzelfde uit als 16 jaar geleden :) Niet naar de pearl farm geweest?

[@sailingloveworkx]

Hi Pieter. Gelukkig ziet het er nog net zo uit als toen. Ik ben daar niet naar de perl farm geweest inderdaad.

[@neilquigley1030]

I've been trying to think of a hammock design for the cockpit - I really like yours! Do you have any advice about how to make it most functional and strong based on your experience so far? I'm thinking I might lead two corners to my two cabin-top winches and the other two corners to my primary jib winches - with adjustable lengths so I can balance better when heeled to one side.

[@sailingloveworkx]

That sounds like a good plan!

[@lindarool]

Zeilen is vrij zijn en genieten, en dan toch ook weer plannen, ben ik op tijd wat doet het weer, het weer kan onvoorspelbaar zijn. Mooi te zien dat het je allemaal toch weer lukt. En blijven genieten, dat doe ik ook van je filmpjes.

[@sailingloveworkx]

Mooi gezegd Linda. Zo is het. Ik ben momenteel in Tonga en bezig met de voorbereidingen naar Nieuw Zeeland dat is inderdaad een hoop werk. Fijn dat je mijn filmpjes leuk vindt.
