Can anyone FIX OUR ENGINE? [Ep93 RED SEAS]

After our major engine fail on our recent Pacific crossing, it's time to address the problems and get things fixed once and for all. We sail to the nearby island of Hiva Oa in the Marquesas Islands of French Polynesia to meet the local mechanic and see what he can do to get us back up and running. While we are there, we help another boat in the anchorage get their anchor free from under another boat, we meet Dustin the single handed sailor who gives us a huge bunch of fresh bananas and we see the supply ship arriving from Tahiti to bring fresh (and much needed) provisions to the island. When we finally get the news about our engine, it's not what we were expecting and we are left not knowing where to turn next.

We have a habit of finding ourselves in the most unusual circumstances, but that’s what makes life interesting! We love to travel, we love the sea and we love sharing inspiring stories about inspiring people.
