Thank you. Would be interesting on a future videos if you shared how to cut the tuna artery and other fishing tricks you've learned....most productive lures for Mahi Mahi or Yellowfin et al...
Well....Its been one heck of a summer for the two of you ..with a few major passages under your belt and the start of a new refit underway I dare say you've got a full plate .. Cant wait to see what comes next .....Best wishes and ........Cheers
..... you both looked pretty chill and relaxed this installment .... must feel good to have the freezer stocked with abundant Tuna .... another passage just about wrapped, will you still enjoy lolly gagging between Islands or will you be chomping at the bit for another passage, how many is this since January, 3 .... have fun be safe, save our oceans ......
At some point you might want to consider getting one of those weighted throw nets. Would have been great for catching some of those squid and for bait fish.
Not sure what wind vane you have, but my Cape Horn adapted really well to a tiller pilot. It steers the pendulum instead of the wind vane and let's the steering paddle do all the work so it doesn't eat away at your batteries
So whats your autopilot and roughly what do you expect it consumes, in whatever way you are figuring it out...? Probably your last sail on her, hope you are enjoying it .. cheers
Yes, that blood really got my attention too! Should have realized that you had brought a fish onboard. Kind of looked wet all around you and that makes for quite an uncomfortable environment. I remember that feeling so well from my youth when Dad & Mom sailed us over to Catalina Island many times. That night time dew seemed to come out of no where and everything was soaking wet. Nothing like crawling into a damp sleeping bag to make you feel all comfy! NOT!
Are you selling Varuna? Somehow I missed the reason for leaving your west coast adventure to sail to Hawaii and then Washington State twice.... Varuna is set up nicely and I am interested in her if she's for sale.
Hi Malama, our reasoning was to have two boats in one place while we refit one and sold the other. To answer your questions, yes Varuna is for sale adventureadrift.com/varuna-for-sale/ and the price is negotiable. Cheers.

If I recall correctly that type is the new super Panamax type because it’s the maximum size that can fit in the new larger Panama Canal locks.

Oh yeah that's some great tasting tuna.

I am guessing you swapped out the watermaker to your other boat right??
Guys, do you freeze the fish before eating it raw?

I would never do a crossing without full fuel tanks and lots of extra
