Cyclone season has begun in French Polynesia and we need to sail 1,000 nm east upwind against the trade winds to get to the safety of the Marquesas.

We’re sailing 400 miles to the Tuamotus, a group of coral atolls in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, but circumnavigators have stated this was the worst passage of their entire world voyage and unfortunately this trip turns out to top our worst journey list as well…
