Essenza - the meaning of the journey The journey of a couple - John Pott and Manuela Visani - respectively Australian and Italian, in the construction of their catamaran Essenza. Living an alternative life in North Queensland, in the town of Bowen, at the top of the Whitsundays Islands, the married couple shares their experience in the building process of Essenza while also working and slowing down to the simple things in life in the beautiful area of the Great Barrier Reef. They are following the design plan of the boat builder Peter Snell: a 41 foot catamaran. Their goal is to have an alternative lifestyle living aboard. The movies, once the boat is completed, will show also their very personal experience on board through life and the ocean.

It's March 1st! I am still at the Marina but now as a visitor. It looks like my departure will be on the 4th of March. I am waiting on the Life Raft on Board. Wahine now has a permit to sail offshore for 30 days and the permit starts on March 6th and ends on April 4th. The general plan is to head down to Hota or Misaki for 1-2 days to finish provisioning and checking systems and then head towards Okinawa. But the goal is not Okinawa itself, the aim is to check all the equipment and test me in certain scenarios offshore. And then back to Tokyo Bay in April to go through the process of deregistering Wahine as Japan Vessel and registering her under a Canadian Flag. That will take a few weeks so should be ready to depart in the prescribed month of June. In the meantime, I will try to post what I can and you can follow along to see where Wahine and I are. Just click the link below. Also, I am pleased to have Will who will help the channel going when I am at sea for season 3. . I will try to do a short video update of something each week and Will`s focus will be on a fuller fuller episode once a month. SO here is the trailer Will put together. https://forecast.predictwind.com/tracking/display/Wahine www.pacificsolo.com sailing solo pacific how to sail solo
