Do you dream of sitting on a deserted island instead of sitting at your desk at work? Join us for a day in the life of sailboat cruisers as we explore an uninhabited island in French Polynesia.

#sailing #thatfeeling #adventure

After lots of hard sailing across the Pacfic, the first thing we want to do is relax and explore. The last thing we want to do is more boat work. After a year and a half later from refaring and repainting our bottom, our Micron Premium Polishing Paint by International products from Akzonobel has held up against the elements. Instead of snorkeling to clean the bottom, we get to snorkel amongst the fish, sharks, and coral reef!

Not only has the paint helped the boats peformance and kept us fast in the water, we are looking good and well protected, keeping us out of the boat yard and in the water longer. This saves us time and money, something we would all love while visiting a deserted island!

    Glacier ice for a cocktail, that is a super rare treat in the tropics!
  • Your depiction of a day in the life on this exotic and insanely remote deserted Polynesian island in Episode 154 is truly mesmerizing. Your exploration and storytelling capture the essence of untouched beauty and adventure. Here's to more awe-inspiring journeys. And I am Floating Village Life.

  • Amazing view scenic beauty. What's great about your channel is that it isn't showing the same stuff the other channels show. Show watching your channel is like being at the destination the first time. Keep them coming cheers
