The crew of SV Delos celebrates a birthday while anchored at the Atoll of Tahanea in the Tuamotu Archipelago, French Polynesia.1:46 To manage temperatures exceeding 100 degrees Fahrenheit, the crew spends the day diving in the atoll’s passes.2:51 They time their drift dives to coincide with incoming tides, allowing the current to carry them from the ocean side into the protected lagoon.3:29 The group coordinates a convoy with two other vessels, Wanderlust and Va, to motor-sail five miles across the lagoon to a sandbar known as The Seven.8:10 During this transit, the crew tows a foil boarder behind a dinghy while the sailboats navigate around coral bommies.8:30 The day concludes with a night dive in the lagoon to observe nocturnal marine life, including synaptidae sea cucumbers, banded sea urchins, and active sharks.14:14 The crew maintains their position by dodging bommies while sailing in light southerly winds at 38 to 40 degrees off the wind.17:43
