Anissia and Tom sail their 44-foot boat from the Marquesas to the Makemo atoll in the Tuamotus, a passage of approximately 500 nautical miles.10:10 During the three-day transit, the crew manages heavy seas, wind shifts, and equipment failures, including a broken topping lift and water ingress through chainplates that soaked their bedding.0:37 To mitigate seasickness, Anissia uses motion sickness patches and maintains a diet of simple foods.1:07 The crew relies on a Windpilot Pacific wind vane for self-steering, which allows them to maintain a consistent course without constant manual input.5:28 Upon arrival at Makemo, they navigate the pass two hours after high tide, noting that the atoll’s unique geography can create strong currents even during slack water.10:33 They anchor in 20 meters of water, using a float on their chain to avoid coral heads.21:39 The crew also demonstrates a method for canning fresh-caught bonito in glass jars using a pressure cooker to preserve fish without a freezer.22:12 Proper timing of atoll pass entry and the use of wind vane steering are essential for safe navigation in the Tuamotus.
