- It’s hard to believe that after 3.5 years, this will be our final passage in our beloved Pearson 367, Varuna! After sailing 2600 miles from Hawaii, we close in on our final destination in Washington State, reflecting on the passage before making landfall in Port Angeles.

I know I havent been around for six seven months, buy you guys are like a touch stone on my own cruising dreams, It is fantastic it catch up
Big couple of months, Central America, Hawaii and North....North America TWICE..... Few months back now in your timeline..... You both must be relieved. Good luck selling Varuna, she has quite a bit of Blue Water pedigree now so hopefully she finds a good home.... I too thought the worst when I saw the notification (arrives middle of night to Oz). I have been along for the ride since you started the channel.... Always look forward to your vlogs.... 🥂🥂 Hillary and Ty
Great video! Absolutely love Victoria!
Checking in with our sailboat was easy-peasy. The customs dock is right next to the fuel dock and took all of 10 minutes. Your results may vary…
Just stay out of the way of the Sea-Planes, they get cranky.
It was a beautiful city! I'm sure customs would have been pretty easy, but like you said - you never know! There sure were a lot of sea planes.
You two seem at one with the sea. Great video.
Cedar plugs are amazing. So primitive, but effective.
Well that was a big effort you guys just to collect your other boat from Hawaii well done!
I hope you’re not looking at another one in Canada! 😂
Glad it was warm for the trip in! Rare up there.
Lots of that boat swamping going on lately. Rigging doctor and Uma, both got a swamping by huge waves recently also.Cheers
You know when to expect it, of course hope for it not to happen but if you have a boat designed for blue water your fine.. eg. I think coopers are bad boats for that, can't remember but avoid any boat with a companion way flush with the cockpit floor.
@@AdventureAdriftSailing Yes that is super advice. I've noticed some cruisers keep a board or two in the gangway/doorway, that they have to step over as they go in and out to the cockpit. Cheers
You are awesome
You guys are awesome I really enjoyed your videos, I like the fact that you are simple easy real living in the boat, we are going to miss you guys, thanks for showing us the world
From one boat to the next, there is a big world out there to keep exploring.
Goodonyah guys
Your back in paradise!
Umm did you look out the window? Well a different kind of paradise.
Victoria is one of my favorites
Gorgeous place
you scared me saying in the title this is your last sail.LOL
Welcome back.
great video. Thank you for bringing us all along
YEAH! So glad to see the journey!
One of my favor love following u guys
Awesome video guys!!!
Cheers Steve
Congrats on another Pacific crossing. Bye bye Veruna!
Great video, amazing how much the seastate can change in 12 hrs. I know several years ago you put in a 12v Sun Pure watermater on Varuna. I may be in the market for a watermaker and all the Sun Pure models look affordable- can you describe your experience with the Sun Pure watermaker - pros and cons, things you might have done differently.
Can't think of many cons off hand, if we could figure a way to go for the 1hp motor off an inverter we would, better power handling OR lithium batteries. Basically the AGMS are not good for high loads and a different battery make up.
Varuna took you a long way.
What a beauty she is, we still have regrets of course.
Ty, how is your back? you look in a much better shape! Cheers, Richard
Up and down mate, doing much better from what I had but I still don't have that young bloke nimbleness. Thanks for asking.
@@AdventureAdriftSailing Will you ever require surgery?
Good show! Thank you
I’ve taken Cojo over to Victoria not too long ago. 👍
R cool
that's a lot of sailing.
Varuna beat Makara and caught more fish, there's a selling point!
Indeed, I guess we just know her better. We were thinking of you the entire way, figured you would be amazed by all the fish.
Hi - Martin in Port Alberni ( Vancouver Island, Canada) - so you landed in Port Angeles, then took the Black Ball ferry over to Victoria ---- to rent a car? Well - OK - I'm over you guys not stopping to see me ( I'm a swell guy) - but why the car rental in Victoria ( because our dollar is less than 75 cents US ?) or you prefer odometers in KM rather than Miles ?
We called but you never answered 😉 we had to get out to Langford so we needed a car.
How do u notify coast guard coming in? Or do you guys just coast into port
Coast into Port, only if arriving from another country would we notify CG but we do reach out if we feel it would be courteous. Some countries demand more regular check in.
Its great when you give lat and long. I can wip out google earth
Are you planning on putting forward current videos now?
Our next one is us getting stuck into projects on our refit.
What's the recent news, Is Varuna sold?
Not sold we are listing with a new broker in Port Townsend
@@AdventureAdriftSailing I'm interested. Email malamawent4it@gmail.com
Show us the rough nights and bad weather. The rest is just fair weather sailing and there’s a thousand channels showing that
I think we were so exhausted after the back to back long passages, didn't have the energy to get the camera out on the really rough days... Wish we could have captured it a bit better looking back now.
How is your back are you still in pain
Yes but less so, I had an operation on my spine which fixed one problem but created new ones.
@@AdventureAdriftSailing I have chronic back pain live on pain killers going to the GYM helps highly recommended stretching exercises
I'm very bad at the exercise party and that really does help but after squeezing into the boat I don't feel like it. I really need to strengthen my back.
Just at the beginning of this video and I'm disappointed that it was from 3 months ago. You guys were here and gone (I think) before I even saw this. I'm not complaining about the time to edit these things. Just disappointed.
We hear you.. good news is we are still close by.
