Tomás and Agustina sail their boat 80 miles from the atoll of Makemo to the atoll of Tikehau in the Tuamotu Archipelago, French Polynesia.1:00 To maintain a steady speed of 3.5 to 4 knots and arrive at the Tikehau pass during slack tide, they deploy a whisker pole to stabilize the genoa in light winds and heavy swell.1:45 Upon arrival, they navigate the wide, 200-meter-long pass and anchor in sand, using fenders as floats to lift the chain and avoid damaging coral heads.5:43 Before departing for Tahiti, Tomás inspects the fuel tank for water and sediment contamination using a dinghy fuel hose to extract a sample from the bottom of the tank.10:36 Because the boat’s fuel gauge sensor is unreliable in heavy seas, he tracks fuel consumption manually by recording engine run-time against a known burn rate of 0.4 gallons per hour.10:50 The crew also processes fresh coconuts into milk using a manual grater and prepares meals while anchored at a seasonal copra camp.9:52
