  • Ivo, Mira and 12-years-old Maya sailing around the world aboard 38-foot catamaran Fata Morgana. This is one of the most incredible stories ever! We met the 57 inhabitants of the small atoll in the middle of the Pacific Ocean named Palmerston. They are all descendants of one man, all with the same family name- Marsters. There, we also met two other boats both with Bulgarians on board in this remote place!
    ***
    Ние сме Иво, Мира и 12-годишната Мая, плаваме по света на борда на 11-метровия катамаран Фата Моргана. Това е една от най-невероятните истории, досега! Срещнахме 57-те жители на малкия атол в средата на Тихия океан, наречен Палмерстън. Всички те са потомци на един човек, всички със същото фамилно име - Марстърс. Там срещнахме и две други лодки с българи на борда, на това далечно място!

    What a simply wonderful video! Like another commenter, I thought that I was clicking on some kinky story of a man living on an island with 3 wives. Which, in a way, I guess it was. Only not in the way I thought it would be. Instead, it's the story of a man who recognized Paradise when he found it and went on to make small improvements and raise an amazing family that has raised several generations of peaceful people who have flourished on a very isolated yet beautiful remote island atoll many miles from what we have come to call civilization in the middle of the Pacific ocean. What an amazing video that tells the story of some very unique and wonderful people - the Marsters family!
    Excellent narration, Maya! What a remarkable adventure you have been living!

    I found this by accident, but was so intrigued by the narration and by the interesting information about Palmerston that I watched it all the way through. It was very well done and I felt as if I was there. What a nice escape from the suburb of a big, east coast city in the U.S. Thank you! Subscribed.

    clap clap...well done! well done indeed! I think this may have been one of the most professionally done youtube videos ever. This was like watching a hugely staffed production documentary designed for television. The island and the people were the best topic ever and I felt you captured a true bit of the essence of life there.
    To the person complaining about the length in comments wanting more and longer videos I remind you this is youtube and even to make such a video of over 20 minutes is quite a task. I can imagine you worked many many hours and even days on this

    Bravo!!! a great and excellent job to film the life of the people who are living quite away from all too busy world. They are living a contented life free from political and religious prejudice. They may be simple in their life style yet they have a lot natural beauty to enjoy. Their living on a lonely island is a vital mark of human courage and adjustment for his survival. The best thing is that they have not ignored education and have brought up the young generation with a positive mind-set. Thanks for sharing such a nice experience.

      Barry! I guess you like high real estate taxes, congestion, failing infrastructure (got stuck today trying to use the Burlington Bristol bridge) all while the political hacks of the Bridge Commission make hundreds of thousands of dollars. I’d say, start a moving company out of NJ and you could get rich quick.
