320: Prepping for 30 hour passage to Tahiti, final days at the Tikehau Pass

In this video, we move the boat to the Tikehau pass to prepare for our 30 hour passage to Tahiti. After seven months in the Tuamotus, we are finally leaving for the Society Islands. It was tough pulling away from the Manta cleaning station, but we enjoyed a couple of days snorkeling and diving the pass!

NEW TO OUR CHANNEL?
We are Eileen and Brown Councill. Welcome to our channel and a glimpse into our NEW life adventure! 2020 was a year of uncertainty and change (for all of us, right?), but we overcame the challenges and decided it was time to chase our dream, to sail around the world! Did I mention that we have very little sailing experience? Before leaving Qingdao, China, our home of 4 years, we sold almost all of our earthly possessions and started our international search to find the right sailboat that we would call "home." After 5 months of unanticipated twists and turns, we found what we were looking for, a used Leopard 44' Catamaran located in St. Lucia.
So, here begins our journey, filled with unmatched excitement and honestly, a bit of trepidation as well. We have much to learn as we travel the world on our floating home and we intend to document that journey and share it with you. We are so glad you have decided to join us, and we hope that you will find our story so compelling that it will inspire you to chase your dreams too!
As a viewer, we consider you to be part of our family and look forward to getting to know you. Don't hesitate to comment on our videos and ask questions. We will do our best to answer every correspondence! All we ask is that you have patience with us as we work really hard to improve our camera/video techniques and ability to tell a story. Hopefully, you will be as BLOWN AWAY from watching, as we are in experiencing and producing our adventures!
If you wish to support our video efforts, all we ask is that you SUBSCRIBE, give a THUMBS UP, and SHARE our videos with your friends!

Very good underwater footage. When you scrub the bottom are you concerned about little critters getting in your ears?

[@SailingBlownAway]

Thank you! I wear a hood and we always scrub when the current is flowing so not typically something we worry about but it can be an issue!!
