SOLO SAILING - FASTEST PASSAGE EVER! [RED SEAS]

This is part 2 of Iain's first ever solo sail, taking on a challenging stretch of water from New Zealand to Fiji. It's 1200 miles in big waves with some of our highest ever boat speeds and even though we've just spent months improving our boat in the yard, there are still things just waiting for the most inopportune moment to break and cause problems at sea! Jump on board with us for the second half of this passage to Minerva Reef as we hold onto our hats and watch as the weather closes in. Want to sail with us?

We have a habit of finding ourselves in the most unusual circumstances, but that’s what makes life interesting! We live in search of the most remote places to live and sail so hit subscribe and join us on this adventure! 🗺️ Track 🗺️ https://www.noforeignland.com/boat/red-seas/journey?find=0&sid=6132493533052928&tc=1679925060879ieours
