Huub completes a 32-day solo Pacific crossing on his 38-foot catamaran from Panama to the Marquesas Islands, arriving at Fatu Hiva before moving 45 miles to Hiva Oa.▶ 0:00 The passage included a heavy weather system in the first week, multiple reefs, whale encounters, and fish catches.▶ 0:04 At Fatu Hiva, the anchorage depth reached 60 feet — deeper than anything Huub had anchored in during his Caribbean years — and the island offers no amenities beyond a small supermarket.▶ 5:34 Hiva Oa, the second-largest Marquesas island, holds the only shipyard in the group; Huub found a discontinued sail-track part at a local sail loft above a marine shop, sewed it in, and confirmed the mainsail functional.▶ 12:34 Starlink has changed the Marquesas stop fundamentally: boats no longer rush to Tahiti for internet and parts, and anchorage traffic has increased as a result.▶ 3:23 Provisioning prices on Hiva Oa run high — laundry cost $50, avocados $5/kg, wine from $15 — and brown water anywhere in the Marquesas signals shark risk and no swimming.▶ 12:00 Huub compares the visit to his first arrival eight years earlier as a crew member, concluding that Caribbean boat ownership was the practical training ground that made the Pacific crossing manageable.▶ 9:48
