My longest blue water trip, 35 days at sea. I sail alone on Reykja, a 35 year old steel yacht. It goes through the Panama Canal to Hiva Oa, French Polynesia. The distance is about 8000 kilometers. This part of the Pacific is remote, I don't see a single ship during the whole time. But many other things.

It was a long journey, my brother, but you did it well with all the challenges that came your way. I felt like being alone in the middle of the ocean is the way I like to do it; it's like having freedom that no one can prevent you from having. Talking to nature and listening to the sound of the waves and wind are the best experiences you've ever had on this journey. It's a really fascinating experience.

Found your channel just now! Wow, 3 thousand $ for the Panama channel is rather steep! I’m dreaming of a similar adventure, so your thoughts and descriptions are good to hear. Not knowing yet how I would cope alone with myself for 35 days, I think it is probably an eye opener to oneself. Time for thoughts and contemplation, something we usually do not do enough in my opinion. Fair winds and gute Fahrt! Christofer from Sweden

They're squid. Squid can jump or fly out of the water. Birds such as swifts and frigate birds which spend most of their life in the air can sleep while flying. Other birds sleep on the water in groups. Sleeping in groups means they alert others when the water gets rough and in times of danger

Wonderful trip! Unfortunately you missed the straights of Magellan and the Chilean archipelago. Only to experience the greed at the Panama Canal. Here’s hoping you a great trip.

Thank you theespjames. To be honest: I didn't dare to sail the Magellan Street by myself. Against the westerly wind and with all the katabatic winds. So yes - I would have liked it much better than the canal

​@@SailingAloneAcrossTheOceanWith the time and additional expenses of going south the financial cost is not much different. Not nice to get screwed by Panama but it's quick and relatively safe. Now trade winds to the Paradise islands.

Thanx for reminding roughly the same route, enjoyed so similarly and yet differently: a single-hander aged 76, but in the name of more challenge (adrenaline actually) choosing a 30 foot boat ("Single Malt" from Riga) and no satellite weather or communication.

That sounds scary. I am sure you had more adrenalin than me - well, dependig on your weather off course

@@SailingAloneAcrossTheOcean Weather (especially when "ignored") can be harsh: 3 shrouds on port side snapped in a storm and they were freshly renewed - airmailed from Florida - while at Shelter Bay. Plenty adrenaline when it happens during a pitch dark night.
