Stunning!! Thanks for sharing Fair winds ⛵️

[@ronbumbera6229]

Congratulations Mark. You've come a long way from being, well, apprehensive about leaving sight of land to crisscrossing the Med to crossing the Atlantic three times to crossing the Pacific. Well done, sir, well done. My compliments to your lovely captain. Congratulations Great Circle.

Mark I feel privileged to watch your videos, they are breathtaking . Thank you so much Ross

So, I lost my 'friends' on Sailing Beaver in Nuka Hiva and for the life of me, I didn't know why? Now, you've lost your favorite drone (sorry!) yet, the footage from Daniel Cay is unbelievable! Stunning? Breathless? I'm at a loss for words! Beautiful, gorgeous... Now, I knw why they disappeared! Who can visit and not be touched? Wowza. Thank you for proving that she can (13.5 days!!!) and then getting straight into remote island life!

[@barryholiday8998]

I was wondering where Sailing Beaver went

[@DCGULL01]

@@barryholiday8998 Me too? I've reached out via email & comments- but, no new videos? They 'know' me well enough to know that I'm concerned (like a parent, I guess) about their well being, so- they HAVE responded to let me know that they are OK. No real updates though? I hope for the best though! They did such a good job setting up the boat, sailing it safely across the Atlantic & Pacific (so far!), I'm just bummed that they never finished the video stream.

[@rayb3117]

The art is amazing and the cliffs by the waterfall are crazy beautiful. As usual great photography per normal. You have, I, think, some of the best photography of all the channels. Its hard to describe the beauty you capture.

[@maciejweber8628]

Wow Mark! The shots you took on that episode are absolutely breathtaking 😍🤯

[@davemarshall1882]

such astonishing scenery with incredible verticality to the landscape I'm truly envious, thank you for sharing

[@divekatdreaming]

Thomas is very lucky to be on this adventure and you are very blessed to have him. He is an amazing young man!

[@CatGreatcircle]

Everybody happy!

[@josemavila3031]

I had been in Hiva Hoa (of course in a Cruise) The magnetic force of that Island had an special attraction for me. The “Pitons”. Enjoy the Marquesas and thank you for your magnificent effort bringing us you wonderful round the world trip

[@CatGreatcircle]

Ua Pou and Hiva Oa next

[@SailingAquarius]

Congratulations on crossing Pacific! Beautiful video, beautiful memories of Nuku Hiva. It was amazing go up the mountain and see completely different looks - forest with wild horses… Enjoy and fair winds! Greetings from Tanzania 🇹🇿 👋

[@brettgraham1966]

That scenery is mind blowing…😱 Bucket list for sure 👍😀

Beautiful videography

[@alfreddaniels3817]

Fantastic images of a great voyage. Thanks to you I can also see and enjoy your adventures from so far away in Holland

[@captainwin6333]

Your camera work is like something you'd see on a David Attenborough program.

Beautiful Island!! Wow! Stay safe and keep sailing, Greatcircle crew!! 👍👍👊👊⛵⛵

[@marvinlacson132]

Been following all ur vids. Awesome.. Love to see the reality of sailing, capturing the inside life onboard. Keep safe guyz..

[@nigelberry2465]

Brings back so many wonderful memories. Thank you

[@toffa66]

Love the filming of this video...wow. This was a inspiration to us who are still left behind.

[@francisunwin5463]

Another great episode guys thank you. Mark great photography takes care

[@graemegordon1232]

The drone shots are amazing and how it blends with your hike so amazing

[@captainsirjackchucklebutty6147]

Excellent video again guys. Wonderful for me to revisit with your splendid movies. Such a jovial crew too ! I did feel later that I had rushed through this unique part of the world too fast. It was a once in a lifetime opportunity,and I wish I had been able to spent years there. xxx Mark/Alchemy

[@CatGreatcircle]

Not a lot of things stay interesting for years and years 😎

[@captainsirjackchucklebutty6147]

Ha ha. Yes indeed. But do you have a plan for when you have completed the circumnavigation? Age and disability forced me to retire from the yachtie lifestyle. To become a philosopher. xxx

[@CatGreatcircle]

We return mid 24 and get the new boat in March 25. Time enough for making new plans

[@timmitchell8784]

Loved the episode guys. Amazing!! So beautiful and wonderfully captured through your eyes. Thank you for sharing

[@heinvosloo45]

Wow! What a wonderful experience and excellent video. Thanks for sharing it with us.

[@simbayukiwolf]

Yes, the 2nd bay is more like it, no cruise ships. And with all that's happening you are in the safest part of the world now.

[@harrykorver9690]

Prachtig, dank jullie wel dat ik mee mag genieten!

[@elenkorb1665]

Wow, Nuku Hiva is so beautiful. Thank you for sharing your trip.

What a way to explore…. Friendship under sail. Could it be any better?

Paradise

[@MK-gr9qz]

Its really amazing 🤟

[@maldwindrummond6158]

Beautiful video. I noticed a very handsome classic Ketch about half way through the video. Is that a rarity in Polynesia? Sorry to hear about the damage at the dinghy dock. It sounds like a paddle board might be the only way to avoid damage? Best, Maldwin

[@CatGreatcircle]

Have to check regarding the ketch

[@scarletbegonias2359]

Ahhhhh

[@halfnelson6115]

Can you explain the comment about not staying because dog on board. Are sailors not allowed to bring dogs onto the island?

[@CatGreatcircle]

I don’t know the details but I do know all the dog owners in the rally have huge difficulties in several countries

Are the carbon tenders too fragile

[@CatGreatcircle]

It’s clear that they are more fragile than ribs, too fragile is a matter of opinion like too heavy

[@marklong8608]

@@CatGreatcircle Would love to learn more about the damage and what could be done to prevent it. I'm considering the AST. Thicker foam collar? Chaps? Another great video, thank you!! I hiked that water fall in 1991 after my first ocean passage, fond memories, except for the no-see-ums.

[@CatGreatcircle]

There are already improvements available. The AST is much more stable than the OC but in some areas OC has already found out which material to use where. Outremer has put a better protection around the AST’s but it doesn’t look as nice as the standard

[@CatGreatcircle]

Another addition would be protection on the front of the boat both for the tender as for the transoms of the boat itself.

[@lifesailinc-lsi1120]

what kind of gifts local people like ?

[@CatGreatcircle]

So far a one way ticket to Papeete seems to be very popular on the other islands

[@davidellis2021]

Is Marque named after the Marquesas?

[@CatGreatcircle]

Yes indeed Markie Marque they call me
