Sailing Across the World's Oceans with No Tech
Hawai'i—possibly the most remote island chain on the planet—was discovered hundreds of years ago by Polynesian voyagers wayfinding in canoes. These ancient explorers relied exclusively upon their knowledge of the stars, bird behavior and ocean swell patterns to find speckles of land. Today, the modern descendants of these explorers are circumnavigating the world's oceans using the same wayfinding techniques.

What's It Like Crossing the Drake Passage?
What's It Like Crossing the Drake Passage?
A top question for many travelers on cruises to Antarctica is: What is the Drake Passage really like?
They want to know whether they can withstand a rough Drake that gives them what is known as the Drake Shake.
Well, we had an incredibly turbulent crossing during our cruise to Antarctica with Ponant. This video shows some raw footage we captured during the two rough days on the Drake.

19 year old crossing the Pacific alone
I'm Garrett. I'm 19 years old, and for the last year and a half I've been learning to solo sail the Hawaiian Islands and prepping my boat, a Nor'sea 27 to travel the world. After months at the harbor working on my boat, it's time to leave the dock and sail to French Polynesia. This is a 2,400 nautical mile upwind trip and should take about 25 days.
Thanks for watching the first 11 days of my passage! I had too much footage to fit it all into one video, so make sure to subscribe to see the rest of my voyage. Also, follow me on Instagram if you want

Traverser l'Atlantique en voilier en couple (sans beaucoup d'expérience)
Vous rêvez de partir voyager en #voilier ? Pas besoin d'être expérimenté, ni riche, ni jeune !
Si nous avons réussi, vous pouvez le faire aussi.
Recevez chaque semaine des conseils pour préparer votre voyage en voilier autour du monde en vous abonnant à notre newsletter sur
La traversée de l’Atlantique à la voile – une étape incontournable pour passer des Canaries et du Cap Vert vers les Antilles (Caraïbes).
Une navigation un peu redoutée car n’importe quoi peut arriver en cours de route.
Quand nous avons décidé de faire notre tour du monde en voilier, nous ne connaissions rien à la voile et aux bateaux. Nous avons tout de même passé un permis mer pour nous sentir plus en sécurité. Ensuite l’achat du voilier, sa préparation très rapide par manque de temps et hop, nous-voilà parti en tdm.
La transat, nous l’avons fait en équipage réduit, seulement à deux. Pour une simple raison. Nous ne voulions pas prendre la responsabilité d’autres personnes au cas où quelque chose arriverait.
Aucune transatlantique ne se ressemble. La nôtre a été assez agitée avec des vents forts, de la houle croisée, beaucoup de nuages et du roulis permanent.
Une transat est très fatigante et comporte des risques. Tout peut tomber en panne à n’importe quel moment. C’est ce qui nous est arrivé. Moteur en panne et par conséquent, impossible de recharger les batteries. Il fallait barrer pendant deux jours jusqu’à ce que, grâce au téléphone satellite Iridium Go, on a pu nous donner la marche à suivre pour nous dépanner.
Nous avons pu avoir un autre gros souci : panne de l’autopilote. Alors là, ça aurait été une catastrophe pendant une transat à l’équipage réduite. Par chance, l’autopilote est tombé en panne juste après la transat.
La traversée de l’océan est une aventure et nous étions bien contents d’être arrivé sains et saufs.
75 000 h.p. The Biggest Nuclear Icebreaker
For licensing and collabs:
Our magic LUTs and presets for color grading:
This video was shot in the Arctic Ocean in March 2018. For 7 days our crew passed through the Barents Sea to Karsky around the Novaya Zemlya archipelago on the nuclear icebreaker Yamal - we saw the northern lights and polar bears, watched the ships stuck in the ice being towed, and were very cold.
In the video you can see two Russian icebreakers - “50 Years of Victory” and “Yamal” with a capacity of 75,000 horsepower and a distinctive shark mouth, which appeared on it in 1994 during one of the children's humanitarian programs. According to legend, someone suggested drawing a smiling shark mouth on the nose to make it more fun for children. At present, Russia has the only nuclear-powered icebreaker fleet in the world. They are used to provide wiring ships in the ices of the Northern Sea Route in the freezing ports of the Russian Federation, research expeditions, rescue operations and tourist cruises.
In addition to the extreme weather conditions, the shooting was complicated by the fact that the icebreaker was always in motion. And if the drone was flying over the radar tower, the recording file was damaged.

South Pacific Migration History
From the Global Village Travel Guide
DVD's
South Pacific
Stock footage:
Transcript:
Volcanic action and the shifting of
the earth's crust thrust these islands
up from the depths.
Wind and water combined to create soil
that would sustain vegetation.
Over millennia, plants found their way from
Asia, Indonesia and Australia. The islands
grew green and soon played host to abundant animal life.
Species by species, the varieties of
plant and animal life increased and
the web of life became more complex.
The next great wave of migration would
be human. About five thousand years ago population
pressures drove these future Polynesians
from their Asian homes.
First they moved through the Fijian Islands
Then eastward to Samoa and Tonga.
From there, they swept through
Tahiti and French Polynesia extending their domain as far as
the Marquesas
Around 2,000 years ago these intrepid sailors
navigated north to the Hawaiian Islands, south to
Easter Island, and even on to New Zealand to complete
the remarkable feat of populating the islands of the Pacific.
Much later, the voyages of Magellan,
Cook, Darwin, and others would seed
Europe with stories of a paradise in the South
pacific where friendly natives lived carefree
under tropical skies.
Such tales gave the islands the reputation they still enjoy today.......
Lighthouses of Oregon: A History of Aiding Maritime Navigation
Lighthouses of Oregon: A History of Aiding Maritime Navigation
This documentary tells the story of Oregon's lighthouses. Today there are 11 still standing, with some that have been lost. These lifesaving structures helped Oregon grow in the early days of the state. Some still run today and some are just monuments enjoyed by visitors. I hope you enjoy this movie that tells an important part of Oregon's history.
This project took me about half a year. A lot of work went into gathering and organizing the information. Visiting the lighthouses was a fun task which I revisited a few. My favorite moment was the first nighttime experience, at Cape Blanco. I snuck away from a sleeping family at camp for an hour. The lone tower was standing tall in heavy wind, with the powerful spinning light. After starting the project and learning about lighthouses, seeing the light just blew me away. I highly recommend watching a lighthouse at night. Heceta and Blanco are the best ones to do that.
The lighthouses appear in order of completion date: Umpqua River, Cape Arago, Cape Blanco, Yaquina Bay, Yaquina Head, Tillamook Rock, Cape Meares, Heceta Head, Coquille River, Cleft of the Rock, Pelican Bay.
A few others get honorable mention: Cape Disappointment, Point Adams, Desdemona Sands, Columbia River Lightship, St George Reef.

Sailing Alone from Hawaii to French Polynesia on a 30ft boat; 26 days at Sea and 2323 Nautical Miles
Episode #256 : Season 9 : The South Pacific
Hello Friends,
Well the time had finally come to move on and undertake the next big leg of my circumnavigation. I departed Kona, Hawaii after spending 9 months licking my wounds, repairing Triteia and exploring the Hawaiian Islands.
The passage from Hawaii to the Tuamotus took 26 days and covered 2323nm, which should be the longest passage of my entire circumnavigation.
I want to thank my shore team with special thanks to David Frederick and Sarah Koenig for your help during the crossing.
This episode is being released on the one year anniversary of my arrival to Oahu.
I hope you enjoy this film.

Getting Ready to make the Leap! We Provision for the great Pacific Crossing
As we embarked on our grand adventure, the preparations for our journey to the Marquise Islands consumed several days of our time. The quaint town of Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, was our starting point, and we had a long checklist of provisions to secure before setting sail.
Our first stop was the massive Costco store in Cabo San Lucas. There, we navigated the aisles, filling our shopping carts to the brim with everything we'd need for the voyage. By the time we reached the checkout counter, our bill had soared to over $400. The Uber ride back to our catamaran was a sight to behold; the vehicle was practically overflowing with groceries, stacked high and wide.
One crucial item on our list was sea water impellers for the boat's engine, and we were determined to be well-prepared. We scoured every marine store in Cabo, purchasing every sea water impeller we could find, ensuring we had spares aplenty.
Clearing out of Cabo proved to be quite the logistical puzzle. Our departure required us to visit various governmental offices scattered across town. Customs, port authority, and immigration each had their separate buildings. It was a time-consuming process, filled with paperwork and official stamps, but it was a necessary part of our journey.
Amidst all the hustle and bustle, a moment of joy broke through. Lincoln, a member of our crew, celebrated his birthday just days before our scheduled departure. We gathered on the boat, sharing stories and laughter, and enjoyed a special birthday celebration at sea.
As we wrapped up our preparations, we had the pleasure of meeting fellow sailors living on another catamaran, the SV Dodo. They hailed from the Netherlands and were as enthusiastic about their journey as we were about ours. Spontaneously, we decided to buddy boat with them, forming a small flotilla of adventurous souls ready to explore the vast, open ocean together. With our provisions secured and newfound friends by our side, our catamaran was ready to set sail, and the Marquise Islands awaited our arrival.

We’re Katie Kevin, Ben, Ethan Molly, and Truman. We have a dream of ditching the rat race and sailing around the world with our family. It takes a bit more preparation for this kind of trip than putting on a pair of sweats and running to the store.
We've been sailing beach cats for a long time, but a few years ago we decided to start looking into buying a boat that could take us to the south pacific. Before we could do that we needed to learn navigation, systems, and mostly how to drive one of these beasts.
This year we pulled the trigger on a Leopard 43 Sailing Catamaran and named it Tusitala. We are currently getting it ready for a year or more of sailing, and preparing ourselves as best we can for the journey.
Follow us as we prepare the boat to learn the ropes and prepare to throw off the shackle's everyday life and set off to explore the world. We may not make it, but if we do it will be a once-in-a-lifetime journey, sailing the world with our Seven on the Sea.
