The crew of the sailboat *Vagabond* anchors at Mopélia, a remote atoll in French Polynesia, while waiting for a favorable weather window to continue their passage.▶ 0:15 The vessel shifts between a southeast and a northeast anchorage to maintain protection from shifting winds and gusts reaching 30 to 35 knots.▶ 2:20 While anchored, the crew manages boat maintenance, including deck repairs and painting, and utilizes solar panels to maintain battery levels.▶ 13:58 The atoll, home to only five permanent residents, lacks regular supply ships or air service, making the community reliant on visiting sailors for transport and provisions.▶ 1:59 The crew documents local subsistence practices, including the preparation of traditional raw fish with coconut milk and the cultivation of small gardens using composted waste.▶ 6:20 During a stay, the crew member sustains a deep finger laceration from a damaged can opener, which is treated with Steri-Strips and secured with painter's tape to allow for continued activity.▶ 13:30 The visit highlights the contrast between the isolated, traditional lifestyle of the local families and the presence of larger, generator-dependent cruising catamarans in the lagoon.▶ 17:03
