In this episode, I sit down with Nica and Jeremy Waters, a couple cruising on their 28 foot Bristol Channel Cutter, Calypso. We met up on the north side of Nuka Hiva in the Marquesas. You might recognize Nica's voice from The Boat Galley podcast she does with Carolyn Shearlock. Jermey has created an affordable weather routing tool for all cruisers called Fast Seas. They both provide information and inspiration for other cruisers, having set sail multiple times in their own lives - first as a young couple, then as a family of four, now as a retired couple. You can follow their adventures at Fit2Sail.com.

Autoridades de Francia decomisaron 1.8 toneladas de droga procedente de México en un velero interceptado en las islas Marquesas, ubicadas en la Polinesia Francesa.

At 21-years-old Jasmine Harrison became the youngest female to row solo across the Atlantic. A year later she set a record as the first woman to swim the full length of the British Isles. Currently, she's participating in the Mini Globe Race, a solo, around-the-world race for 5.8 meter mostly home-built yachts. Before starting the race, Jasmine didn't know how to sail. We crossed paths in the Marquesas where we discussed her exploits. Follow her progress on the Mini Globe website or her Instagram page.

Grocery Shopping, Marquesas-style. Here are three  things to know about restocking your food supply in the Marquesas. Summary Before we arrived in the Marquesas, I worried about the ease of provisioning groceries. Yes, everyone eats everywhere. However, I had heard that stores were mostly nonexistent, had few items available, and what was found would be expensive. What was the reality? First, you'll find three types of "stores": magasins (small, department-store-ish businesses), green markets, and locals selling affordable produce from their gardens. Second, we found most of what we needed. We had heard that black beans were hard to find, so we stocked up in Panama, as we eat them frequently. But everything we looked for, we found. And finally, necessities (like flour, canned vegetables, and some meats) were subsidized by the French government to make them affordable. You can find them by looking for red tags. These appear either on the item or the shelf. Bottom line? While costs for many items were higher than we're used to in the United States and Canada, the availability of produce from local sellers and subsidized groceries makes provisioning manageable.

Andy Schell of 59° North Sailing is no stranger to the Out The Gate podcast. We'd both been wanting to follow up on our last podcast conversation, but hadn't managed to connect over Zoom. So, when Falken, 59° North's Farr 65, and Dovka both happened to pull into Hiva Oa in the Marquesas the same morning, we took the opportunity to finally sit down and chat. We talked about our respective Pacific crossings, the importance of letting go, and what we're each looking forward to in sailing, work, and life. This interview can also be found on Andy's pre-eminent podcast On The Wind.

Ben Shaw returns to the podcast, this time in-person and onboard DOVKA, his family's Hallberg Rassy. Ben is the host of the Out the Gate sailing podcast and a former crew of 59º North. Ben and his wife Lauren sailed with us on ICEBEAR in 2019 to prepare for their own cruising adventures, and we met up quite spontaneously in Hiva Oa, after both crossing the Pacific to the Marquesas. We talked about Ben and his family's cruising plans - they've been living aboard now for two years with their young kids - ocean sailing, podcasting and much more. -- This season of ON THE WIND is sponsored by Weather Routing Inc., aka 'WRI', 59º North's longtime weather routing & forecasting friends. To learn more and sign up for WRI, go to wriwx.com and tell them that 59º North sent you.  -- This season of ON THE WIND is also sponsored by Boat How To, an educational website co-founded by longtime friend of the pod & sailing tech guru Nigel Calder.

Here's why you should collect rain water on your cruising boat, even if you have a watermaker. And a few tips to tell you how to do it. Summary  Catching rainwater on the boat? Is it worth it even if you have easy access to water in your cruising locale? We think so. In the Marquesas, where we're currently cruising, we find taps providing water in every settlement's port. It's not always potable. But it's suitable for showers and laundry. We also have a small watermaker onboard. Even so, we still gather rainwater aboard Calypso. A heavy rainfall fills our collapsible water jugs in 20 minutes with a little effort and no electricity. Our watermaker uses 10 amp hours of electricity to produce three gallons. That's electric that we could use for making bread, accessing the internet, or other luxuries.  Collecting water also means we don't have to be stingy with washing laundry. And can take longer showers. Every day. Calypso's awning was designed to collect water with quick-connect fittings that we direct to a bucket. Even without an awning, you can collect water running off your bimini. Or collect it directly from the sky.  For more details, listen to the full podcast. Or check out Water Catching FTW for pictures of our setup.

I met 23-year-old Kevin Boyle when he sailed into La Cruz Mexico aboard his Ericson 32 and I took his lines at the dock. Kevin stuck out in the sailing community of La Cruz because of his young age. He reminded me of myself when I went cruising in my 20s and I really wanted to talk to him about his experience cruising a young person and seeing how he made that happen. He's currently crossing the Pacific from Mexico to the Marquesas and I'm hoping we can reconnect in French Polynesia.

Un potente temporal azotará esta noche un atolón del reino de Tonga, en el Pacífico. Fondeado en él está el velero Krait y a bordo, Ivana Gaitán y Carlos Valero. Conectaremos con ellos para que nos cuenten cómo se preparan ante los vientos de más de 50 nudos en un lugar que, por remoto, no tiene ni puerto, ni servicios de rescate u hospitales. ¡ATENCIÓN! NO ME APLASTES es una iniciativa de ciencia ciudadana que puso en marcha, hace ya dos años, un equipo de científicas de la Estación Marina de Plentzia. El microcosmos que habita entre los granos de arena de nuestras playas es el protagonista principal. Javi Larrañaga nos relata la singladura de su velero, el Pacific, por aguas de las Marquesas y Tuamotu. Un rincón del Océano repleto de contrastes, costas escarpadas y arenales que apenas sobresalen de la superficie completan el paisaje de un escenario mítico. Jorge Ríos nos presenta un libro entre el ensayo periodístico y la autobiografía: UN INMENSO AZUL, de Patrick Svensson. El autor recorre el océano y sus recuerdos de niño, aclarándonos que ama la Mar pero que no la frecuenta.

¡Zarpamos rumbo al pasado!: un equipo de historiadores del Centro de Arqueología Subacuática del Instituto Andaluz del Patrimonio Histórico está estudiando los restos de un gran velero del SXVII, extraídos del fondo del puerto de Cádiz. Vuelve a embarcarse Kiku Cusí para ofrecernos una mirada diferente y fascinante sobre las embarcaciones de Copa América. Además, charlaremos con él de la próxima Vendeé Globe. El Pacific, el barco de Javi Larrañaga, vuelve a zarpar desde las islas Marquesas, en el propio Océano Pacífico: navegación, buceo y cultura para una singladura muy intensa.

This week, Mike and Chantele Francis (@Chan___Fran) discuss Season 4: Marquesas!

Capt. Andy Thompson is, in my book, one of the greatest people you'll ever have the pleasure of knowing, both on and off the water. He's soft spoken, but his words carry incredible weight. Why?Because he's truthful, genuine, and his integrity is gold! He's also one of the greatest guides in the game. Andy grew up in Miami and at a very young age gravitated to fishing and never looked back. He refined his craft and eventually started fishing against the best in the world, in the biggest tarpon tournaments. He and his angler Mark Weeks won the Don Hawley twice, cementing their names in the history books. Thompson's knowledge is also incredibly vast. He can confidently fish from Chokoloskee to the Marquesas and when the fall arrives, he'll head west to Louisiana where the monster redfish cruise the shorelines. Nicky and I have had some of our best days there with him, where our minds were blown apart by what he knows and what we caught. Andy also loves to hunt - turkeys, waterfowl, deer and elk. Yes, he's an extraordinary outdoorsman, but he's even better as a father, husband, and unwavering friend!

Owen Murphy recently crossed the Panama Canal, then sailed to the Galapagos islands, and on to the Marquesas, solo, on his Pacific Seacraft 34. We talk about learning French, Polynesian tattoos, provisioning, cyclones, sailing from Panama to The Marquesas, siglehanding, Owen's Pacific Seacraft 34, spinnaker mishaps and lessons, going up the mast, gooseneck barnacles, climbing the mast at night, the three types of fun, wearing a helmet, boats that sank, securing the anchor at the bow when offshore, whales, transiting the Panama Canal, Owen's dream-boat pick, talking to yourself, and more!

The removal of The Ten Commandments in school was a defining moment that marked the coming breakdown of civility.   Dead Man's Pants We must not let our children inherit a broken nation.

Kennedy Warne highlights the efforts of a young Australian attempting to row solo across the Pacific. Tom Robinson has been rowing for 4 months, having left Peru on 1 July. The 23 year old is almost half way, about 400 km north of the Marquesas, but it's a tense time. The current keeps pushing him north, and there are very few islands, inhabited or uninhabited, in those latitudes. He will run short of food in another month or so, and the cyclone season is about to begin.
