The crew of the Lagoon 450 catamaran Parlay Revival performs a traditional equatorial baptism ceremony while crossing from the Northern to the Southern Hemisphere during a 3,000-mile Pacific passage from Puerto Vallarta to French Polynesia. After 2,000 miles of sailing, the seven crew members—referred to as pollywogs—undergo a hazing ritual involving a "truth serum" concoction of food scraps and flour before swimming across the equator to become shellbacks.12:35 The vessel maintains a speed of approximately two knots under light sail during the ceremony.10:54 Following the celebration, the crew discovers a damaged solar panel caused by improper reefing tension; the main boom was sheeted in too tightly, forcing it down onto the solar array and shattering the glass.20:52 The passage continues toward French Polynesia with the crew managing fresh food supplies, including cabbage, onions, and potatoes, after two weeks at sea.4:24
