Attempting to Sail How They Did In The 1700's (Celestial Navigation) | S7:E12

In today's episode, we will be ditching all modern navigational tools and Sailing the Pacific Ocean like it's the 1700's! We will attempt to navigate from Papua New Guinea to Indonesia using only a sextant, handwritten maps, and celestial navigation. Navigating the Pacific Ocean by sailboat is difficult enough even with modern technology and GPS, so this will be quite the challenge for our crew of rookie sailors. Despite our fears going into this challenge, we are extremely excited to experience what life was like for sailors from previous centuries, before the advent of today's navigational tools. ------------------------------------------ Watch Season 6: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3-1Jkl4rCMY&list=PLEz8PmTM4lWDu_xLN0JFnx-YX5lSgzXq3&index=1&t=57s Watch Season 3: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0nsvIT8jNl8&t=131s Watch Season 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yt7prknxHOA Watch Season 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Z1OuEPXG-w ------------------------------------------ New videos EVERY WEDNESDAY SUBSCRIBE to support our mission to GIVE BACK! ------------------------------------------ Our mission is simple: Sail the world while giving back to the remote communities we visit along the way. Every 2-3 months we bring a new crew of novice sailors on board. People who want to explore the other side of their comfort zone. Well, we take them under our wing, teach them how to sail, and explore some of the less explored parts of the planet together. We really just ask one thing of them: help us leave the most significant impact possible along the journey. Amongst the many islands and communities we have visited, we have met some of the most positive, kind, welcoming, and innocent people imaginable. These people are often so generous and special, however, they often times lack basic necessities - proper clothing, health care, medicine, etc. We want to have the most profound impact possible. But to do that we need your help. First, subscribe to the channel and join the community. Second, consider joining our Patreon or donating on our webpage to help us cover the high costs of maintaining the boat and our travels to these remote places. ------------------------------------------ Follow us on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/sailingrippleeffect/ Follow us on TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@sailingcerebral_?lang=en Follow us on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/sailingcerebral Join our Community: https://www.patreon.com/sailingcerebral ------------------------------------------ Follow Mara: https://www.instagram.com/mararipple/ Follow Doc: https://www.instagram.com/docgastone/ Follow Tammy: https://www.instagram.com/tambam_tw/ Follow Salem: https://www.instagram.com/salemahaire/ Follow Amie: https://www.instagram.com/_amiego/ ------------------------------------------ Thank you for watching!!!
