Some great memories of our girls - Andréia, Makô

Some great memories of our girls - Andréia, Makô and Kuna - 3 nights and around 40km adventure of camping, hiking and eventually hitchhiking to cross the magical Tahiti island from north (Pape’eno) to south (Mataeia). 🏕🌗🥾

On this trip we were so blessed by the Universe with the perfect weather, people, nature and, of course, the incredible eclipse of the fullmoon that we didn’t know about until I woke up at 2am to pee and noticed that something (very) strange was happening to the moon... 🌕🌖🌗🌘🌑🌒🌓🌔😧

If not already being magical enough, when we arrived at Lac Vaihiria at the heart of Tahiti after spending 2 nights on the mountains, José appeared with his bicycle there by surprise! 🤩
No kidding. He had a sandwich, gave us cheese and bread, took a little spanish nap and cycled back to our boat! 😲
It was so fast that we didn’t even had time to think about taking a picture of this epic moment unfortunately. 💨

Tahiti has always been a dream for sailors but to be honest when we arrived in French Polynesia nearly 4 years ago we actually didn’t really like it...🤭

I guess that our super high expectations on it made us somehow disappointed because of the very evident and superficial “capital” part of Tahiti. There are loads of people, traffic, industries, cargo ships, hotels, cars, accidents, pollution... and that really sucks. 🥴

But after spending a long time on this island we got to learn some of it’s hidden wonders, jurassic valleys, huge waterfalls, ancient forests, spectacular sunsets and some really cool people.. We’ve made many precious memories here and now Tahiti has a special place deep in our hearts forever.
We love it more and more everyday..! 🗿⛰🪝

Our special thanks for our beautiful tahitian friend @makotahiti and her family that over those years shared and teached us so much about the polynesian culture, friendship, love and life.🍀✨

I love you so much, ma belle Makô! 🥰

Easy 30m max airplane and ship wreck dive inside T

Easy 30m max airplane and ship wreck dive inside Tahiti’s lagoon just in between Faa’a and Pape’ete. 🛩

This wreck dive site allowed us to explore two magnificent wrecks. One of a considerably sized Catalina airplane and another of a wooden old schooner that used to move goods and people between the polynesian islands back in the day.🤓

It seems that there’s another ship wreck a little further north to the wrecks we’ve seen but we haven’t explored it yet. Hopefully on our next dive on this site we will. 👀

Probably best to see the ship wreck first as it’s deeper but the nicest part of this dive is definitely the plane’s wreck, resting on its right wing on a sandy bottom about 16m. It can be penetrated by entering through a door located on the left flank. We were told later that there’s a huge moray eel that lives inside of this wreck but we haven’t seen it. Another legend of Tahiti maybe..? 🤔

This is photo was taken by @unforgettablesailing and is now our souvenir from this morning dive with our friends and current neighbors Gema (SV Amares) and Diego (S/V Unforgettable) on a random cloudy day in French Polynesia! 👊🍀

A vida é Trem-Bala, parceiro! 🚆🍬. Escutei e

A vida é Trem-Bala, parceiro! 🚆🍬. Escutei essa música pela primeira vez alguns dias depois do falecimento do nosso querido @felipearias e, enquanto a música tocava, minha alma conectou plenamente com a dele. ✨

Tínhamos gostos musicais muito parecidos e, ao longo dos anos, criamos um hábito quase compulsivo de trocar músicas. Confesso que envio músicas pra ele até hoje... 😔

Outro dia desses me deparei com a cifra dessa música e comecei a tocá-la (muitas vezes eu me gravo tocando para assistir depois e tentar melhorar 🙈) e então nossas almas se encontraram outra vez...👽

Instintivamente coloquei na cabeça um dos bonés da @_larmar_ que ele nos deu com tanto carinho (como faço muitas vezes com a ilusão de me aproximar daquela energia incrível que transcendeu tão cedo) e ficou registrada essa conexão momentânea com esse baleio visionário... 🐋

Aproveitei a oportunidade para estrear o IGTV do @moskito.valiente.sailing porque sei que o Fê ficaria bem feliz com essa façanha, visto que sempre nos dava “broncas” dizendo que deveríamos compartilhar mais sobre nossa vida no mar e usufruir melhor dessa plataforma..🙄

Então essa vai pra você, querido amigo, que tanta falta faz aqui neste plano! Saudademais... 💙

obs: desconsiderem minhas precárias habilidades de canto e violão. Esse post é uma homenagem e não um cover. 😅

Tahiti is legendary! 😍
We’re always happy to come back to this epic island. ⛰🔥

Can you believe on this incredible HUGE waterfall inside Tipaerui valley just behind the craziness of Papeete city on the middle of the Pacific Ocean? 😧

Tahiti hides so many secrets that we never get tired of exploring this astonishing island..! 😍

Mucho merci to our belle tahitian friend @makotahiti for taking us to this amazing hike on Tahiti’s untouched wilderness! 🙌😘

So much fun to have many different sails onboard t

So much fun to have many different sails onboard to play with! 🤩

On our last crossing from Marquesas to Tahiti the wind speed diminished gradually allowing us to sail with:

- our yankee and forestay sail together (3rd post);

- then we used our gennaker runner (4th post);

- after we changed to our gennaker reacher (5th post);

- and we finished the crossing flying our super cool symmetrical spinnaker (6th post). 🌬⛵️

We absolutely love to fly a huge spinnaker even though it makes the watches and nights a bit more tiring as we’re constantly trying to anticipate any potential showers or gusts. But it’s worthy because it’s so beautiful, colorful, fast and fun! 💨🎈🚀😍
