Τι καλύπτει αυτό το βίντεο
After a Pacific crossing of more than 3,000 miles, the crew of Big Lost settles into the Marquesas and addresses post-passage boat work before exploring. A code 5 sail had slipped up the torsion cable during the crossing — not critical, but requiring attention before the crew could move freely.0:59 First anchorage was Teohe Bay on Nuka Hiva, notable for black sand beaches, ancient Tiki sculptures, and sharks patrolling beneath the fishing pier.1:58 The crew then moved to Daniels Bay Anchorage to reunite with friends aboard Kaikoa, a boat they had first met at Staniel Cay in the Bahamas and crossed paths with repeatedly since.2:56 From Daniels Bay, the group hiked inland to Vaipo Waterfall — described as one of the tallest waterfalls in French Polynesia — along a trail requiring multiple river crossings and muddy bushwhacking through a valley lined with ancient stone walls.4:52 The village at Daniels Bay is small, tucked between mountains and sea, and quiet.3:44 The broader reflection: the Pacific crossing was the milestone, but the anchorages, hikes, and time with other cruising families are what define the experience afterward.
