Hello Friends,
On this episode we haul up and head off for some adventure on the far side of the lagoon at Rangiroa at Motu Faama. Keeping a keen eye out as we transit the uncharted waters we have a close encounter with a coral bommie and finally make it safe in to the tropical paridise anchorage of Motu Faama and waste no time getting the explorations underway.

I'm 1 year in the future watching this, what's stress to you brings peace just watching, thank you!
Great video. The last few minutes with the drone footage and music was really breathtaking. Awesome!
I like James is about the only one who thanks us, "the viewers" 😉 What an interesting and beautiful place to be! those lava formations, the water, vegetation, the nature of the place is just beautiful. You are living the dream brother! Safe sailing! 🤙
I appreciate all of you for watching and I love getting to share this with you all
Sailor James , You are The Real McCoy The Real Thing !! You DO what MOST of us dream on doing !!!! Plus, you are an intelligent, humble sailor !!!! Also, safety come first in your book !!!! Appreciate that you do not drink because one mistake can be fatal !!!! James, your voice is very relaxing and you speak in layman term !! You calm my special needs anxious cat Lucy down too !! Thank you and blessed 2023 to all the viewers !!
Nice mix of music. The jazz with the drone footage was very good. Beautiful place. Thanks for showing us.
I use your life as an inspiration to my young wife and son to never give up on their dreams. in a few years we will be moving back to Thailand but right now they are home sick. your journey is a gift to all who watch you. thank you calimike
Back in 1989 when i bought my 30 foot yankee sparkman stephens in hawaii and was planning crossing oceans in 1991,i bought earl hinze book landfalls of paradise while i took a coarse on celestial navigation. I think youre anchored right where he took a picture that jacked my curiosity to maximum overdrive of the south pacific.&I never got there but i did get everywhere else in the south pacific practicly ,eventually.. Fiji being my favorite. That was back before internet and all we had wasTv , books and magazines like cruising world . Gps had only just become available to sailors.. the magellon hand held gps was 5,000.00 . 3 days before i set sail in sept 1991 it went onsale for 2,200.00. I bought it. 3 years later you could buy a garmin gps for 199.00 that was much faster and better. Gps really did change the world. Now everyone can sail the oceans. I got lazy and let my skills for sextent navigation slide after that first year.over the last 30 years i only know 1 yachty who knows how to use a sextant.
Dude, imagine that uninhabited Motu on a clear, calm, starry, moonlit night. Although I'll probably never see that with my own eyes I'm glad I got to see it through yours and knowing it's there brings me peace to some extent. That's got to be one of the most peaceful places on Earth. You worked hard to get there! Congrats on a safe yet ultimate adventure.
Absolutely sick !!!.....thank you for sharing brother !!!.
Merci beaucoup, i lived over on Moorea for 4 years, loved Polynesia.
James - mate - stunning.. what else - thank you.
Hey James, thanks for sharing! This was a beautiful journey, well documented. I especially liked how you cared enough to leave and/or help the hermit crabs. Cheers brother! ⛵🌎🌍🌏
Yeah those guys have some cool houses, I was amazed at how many hermit crabs I saw once I started looking
That was cool to see hermit crabs in nature
absolutely amazing experience... every sailor's dream
Started watching when you sailed to Hawaii and have been hooked ever since, amazing video and fascinated by your narration. Shared with my sister now she’s fascinated also!😊
Man, these last couple of shots are epic and the tunes just hits the spot! From here it looks like you're living my dream. How to meet you out there some day!
Thanks 🙏🏻 it’s incredibly beautiful in Rangiroa
Hey James. Loving how you are taking us on your journey. Great camera/drone shots to some cool tunes. Keep it up mate and safe travels
18:13 -- stunning color palette !! The jazzy selection at the end provided a glossy finish and just So worked. Thank you for doing this. One of these days I must send a token of my appreciation
Thanks 🙏🏻
Great video - I loved that last jazzy tune as well !
As always, such a nice impression. One of the most beautiful places I have seen via Vid so far. All the best!
Amazing best video.. awesome.. thank you for sharing this video.. very inspiring.. greetings from traditional Indonesian gold seekers ❤️🇮🇩⛏️⚒️👍👍👍
Thank you 🙏🏻
James, I can’t thank you enough. I will never be able to walk on a beach again but you sure are bringing it to life for me. I am so glad I found your channel. Thank you
Love your journey, James. Sam Holmes turned me onto your channel back when you were in Marina Del Rey. Haven't missed a video since. Keep living the brochure life.
Thanks for following along 🙏🏻
Earth's Life is just amazing, it is everywhere !
Almost where there is will there's a way !
Great Video. Thanks !
Magnificent place that few ever get to see.
Wow James. I’ve been binge watching your stuff for a while now. Your life journey is truly a proof of grit and a showcase of how our human spirit will always prevail if we just stick to the greater goal no matter how gnarly life gets. You show it well my friend!
There’s something special about this video. One of those that just comes out with a different touch!
Thanks for all you do and keep on sailing brother ⛵️.
It’s one of my favorite videos I have made 👍🏻 thanks for watching
Beautiful video !!! Keep up the great work. Cheers from Ohio, USA
Hi James, I love to watch this incredible places you take us! I'm very impressed with your hard work. Take care. LOVE 🥰
Those last shots and song!
♥️
As a guy who’s in the matrix, working a 9-5…or should I say 5-5, I envy your way of life. Keep pumpin out good content my dude.
Go for it
WOW! Just beautiful!
Keep those adventures coming brother.
Hello Friend, Your Videos are geting better and Better. Thanks!
Great vid as always, really well done and very cool.
Excellent video James, I couldn't help but make note that there was zero garbage etc. on the beach and surrounds.Good one
The shallow passes between the motus look as if they were created by storms. A fabulous beach combing opportunity. Nature is amazing.
Yeah they are called Hoas and have tons of life in them
Hey James, amazing video! I would love to see a hyperlapse SV-triteia on one of your journeys! Keep up the good work!
Another amazing video, James. I really enjoy your perspective of seeing the beauty of this planet and how you share it with us. I really appreciated your childlike wonder with the hermit crabs and the nature around you. I can't wait to finish the refit of my sailboat in the hopes of following in your foot steps.. err.. boat wake! Happy and safe travels. :)
MOST beautiful place ever!😅
OK... I just watched when you bought the boat, episode 1. Now I have to watch them all. They're great. I lived on board a Catalina 25' for a few years on the Chesapeake bay and I loved it. Never blue watered. I want to do it again. Thinking back it was the best time of my live.
Beautiful…….unspoiled!
Amazing drone footage ! Thank you !
Loved the crab 100 meter sprint race, made me laugh that you had them in your pocket for that long.
Good episode sailing in Tahiti islands 🏝 ⛵️ Absolutely beautiful islands .
How beautiful James. You truly are living your best life. Hahaha the shells in the pocket was hillarious. Thank you for providing such awesome content
Beautiful. Thanks. Never been here. Certainly qualifies as paradise. Nice drone shots.
Hi James! That was 20 minutes of pure bliss! That was hilarious when you discovered the shells in your pocket were occupied! Ha! That like never happens. Have a great day
Those first "shells" you picked up were dead heart urchins, the first without its spines and the second, still had them after dying.
Wow amazing! Thank you for the private tour!
Just love that hat!
So beautiful, thanks for sharing. Love your hat :)
Mountains and the sea. So much out there and I love to see what I can through the eyes of others. Thank you sir.
I'm adding these fantastic places to my ever expanding bucket list. Good stuff.
This is such a fun & stunning video! The drone footage is out of this WORLD!!! ps that was a sand dollar:)
Living Life ! Hell ya you are a adventure explorer sailor . Great Videos !
Great video Captain, the drone footage was off the hoook !!!
So amazing! I hope you stay as long as you can!
Aloha James,
What a beautiful place..I'm a shell picker and totally love seeing the shells there. Watch out for cone shells some are deadly. Stay safe and enjoy.
God, my heart leapt when I saw that coral off the starboard beam
I had a heart attack 😂
Spectacular!
Stunning footage THx
What an amazing spot, I hope I make it there one day. Thanks for sharing James.
You are truly amazing my brother. Thanks for sharing your awesome journey with us.
Thank you 🙏🏻
Amazing how huge the atoll really is. Just a speck in the Pacific, but a huge and beautiful place to see
Awesome videos!!!! Such fantastic content
Thanks!
Wauu have to go there som day👍
10:00 watching the difference between the pounding waves of the open ocean versus the calm waters of the lagoon is kind of disquieting in a weird way. it's when you realize that islands in the ocean aren't just land masses but also the water they encompass...
Good to see all the hard work you put into your boat is paying off for you!
Yeah Triteia is doing great
Good stuff James
So soooooothing
James, for better dinghy performance lock the motor, sit on the bow and steer off the bow with an oar. Keep the blade dipped so just a bit is slicing the water then turn the blade in the direction needed and she will turn like a dream. No more wheelies, she will trim perfectly, no more motor vibrating your arm off, and you won't have to steer much leaving hands free for filming. Give it a go, I have been doing this cruising the coast around the Ithsmus and it's much more pleasant.
Beautiful
Awesome view man enjoyed the vid can’t wait to see next destination
Wauw.... beautiful ❤️
I’ve been following you since CA. You really seem to be happy at this point of your adventure. Wishing your the best in the future and thank you for sharing with us.

Greetings … think i was hearing some “Crusaders” music at the end of the Video?
Excellent !!
Wow, what a beautiful spot!!! You are killing it on this journey 👍🏾 safe travels.
Phenomenal
Dude your awesome....
My highlight of the week now… so want to be there.
It was incredible!
First time I every had that problem 🤣
Here in the pacific north west we encourage people to leave shells on the beach for hermit crabs. I didn't know they were down down in the tropics too.
Incredible. Thanks so much for bringing us along.
Thank you 🙏🏻

I only recently found your channel, I am loving your video's and seeing the remote islands. thank you
Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
Yeah I stumbled on his vids while the wife was out of town. (I could then watch what I wanted.) I'm now hooked and even made her watch a few and I think she's getting on board. No pun intended..
Capitán!! Great, GREAT episode!!
Thank you 🙏🏻
Nice work!
So inspiring! About to do the same when my little house on the prairie sells, renovated a old Camper to adventure to the sea and buy a sailboat. I love your channel, inspires me every day.
I am excited for you! It’s an incredible way of life that isn’t always easy but the unbelievable good times far out weigh the hard work !
@@SailorJames Thanks for the encouragement! It’s been a shocking decision for my family to actually believe lol. I’m not 18 anymore and I have a bone disease that requires monthly attention. It’s an all in because I’m sick of living in a way that does not feel natural to me anymore ie, my house, any house. I’m almost 50 now and ready to jump the hell in! So grateful for kind knowledgeable people like you to lead by example.
you got the life brother🤙🏼 insanely good content✊🏼
Thank you 🙏🏻
