Paradise Isn’t Perfect😩 Sailing French Polynesia

Our adventure in French Polynesia takes an unexpected turn when we discover severe damage to our sail drive shaft during what we thought would be a quick and simple seal change. 😩 It took two trips to the USA and thousands of dollars to get the parts we needed and make the repair— a consequence of sailing the remote islands of the South Pacific. Just as we began to think we were back on track, 40-knot winds, and an uncomfortable anchorage made it clear that the challenges are far from over. 😅 ——————————————————————— ⛵️Join the Crew or become a VIP (our version of Patreon!): https://www.svsabado.com/subscribe/ ⚓️Check out our Blog: https://www.svsabado.com 📸Follow us on Instagram: @sv_sabado 🎁Our favorite products: https://www.amazon.com/shop/hollyandray **As Amazon associates, we earn commission from qualifying purchases** Holly and Ray have been #sailing together since 2020 on their #catamaran, Sabado.
