Landfall in Fatu Hiva after 23 days at sea (EP 41)

Welcome to another update from Elixir's voyage around the world!
In this video, we make landfall in the beautiful island of Fatu Hiva. It's a relief to see land again after so long at sea, and we spend some time exploring the islands.
The Marquesas are stunning islands, with a rich an unique culture, and we are constantly in awe of our surroundings. For a long time, it's been a dream of mine to sail through the south Pacific, and now that we've arrived, it doesn't feel real.

You guys always entertain fair winds...

[@prestonsjourney]

Max your story telling has come a long way. I appreciate you taking this project on and updating us from time to time. I have watched several channels come across the sail you have just put behind. Good luck mister!

[@UntideSailing]

Thank you very much!

[@masterofmachines]

I get to escape monotony through these videos. Please continue to share when you can!

[@rickkwitkoski1976]

Thank you.

The oldest Polynesian DNA is here on Fatu Hiva. The ancients sailed from Tiwan to Samoa. Then on to this island. Then to Rap Inui and on to South America. We are now finding Polynesian gnome markers in Columbia, Brazil and Mexico.

this is so insaaane - beautiful footage and Fatu Hiva looks like the most incredible island 🤩

[@paulevans2325]

Really great vid. Your trip is inspiring me to pull my finger out on my refit. Fair winds and fun times 😊

[@UntideSailing]

Thankyou! It will all be worth it in the end

[@debbiemccrossan3809]

As others have said, your storytelling is Epic Max. Last year I sailed to the Marquesas arriving in Fatu Hiva then checking in at Hiva Oa and snorkelled at Tahuatu. But you have described the experience beautifully. 👍

[@UntideSailing]

Thankyou! Glad that you have experience the islands too!

Did I just spot sv dellos???? You shoulda done an interview - the difference in your sailing life styles (they're older and have kids I guess) would have made for such a cool little snippet! Sending love from Somerset!

[@UntideSailing]

Yes, they are our buddy boat!

[@samfoster4144]

Delos have been in a bunch of their videos. I'm also from Zumerzet but don't live there anymore. Have a Sheppys for me!

Hello, what is the name of the beach in 13:11 (life at anchor chapter) is this still in Fatu Hiva or back on Hiva Oa ? Thank you

[@UntideSailing]

Hello! I can’t remember the name of the beach, but it is actually in Tahuata :)

[@ShaneEngelman]

I thought you can't make first landfall in Fatu Hiva first this year?

[@UntideSailing]

This was last year!

[@Jordanbigel]

@@UntideSailing As far as I understand, Fatu Hiva was not then, or now, an official Port of Entry. Did you have any issues being there without officially checking into the country?

[@nas6587]

Wow, how tall is Alex?...

[@UntideSailing]

I think she is 6’2

[@quolls2]

What size and breed of boat?

[@UntideSailing]

She is a swan 37!
