Preparing for Our Most INTENSE Sailing Passage in the South Pacific

Some passages are easy. Others? They have a reputation for being brutal.
After months exploring Fiji, this is our final sail to Vuda Marina before we leave Wanderlust and Yoda behind and fly to the U.S. for the first time in over two years. But when we return, the real challenge begins.
With cyclone season closing in, we’ll have just a short window to prepare the boat, stock up on provisions, and get Yoda cleared before setting sail on a 1,200-nautical-mile passage to New Zealand—one of the most unpredictable crossings in the world.

If you're new here, Harbors Unknown is the story of two dreamers, Kristin & Fabio Potenti, & our dog Yoda. We're a small family living aboard our catamaran, SV Wanderlust, sailing to Harbors Unknown. Exploring the world, connecting with people and places through the local cuisine, and showing how great food can be cooked on a boat with limited space and resources. Seeking to balance the desire to explore and travel to beautiful, remote locations while leaving no footprint, minimizing the Hawthorne effect of the observers who change the environment she or he observes.

We hope to inspire people and showcase the possibility of living an alternative lifestyle that provides freedom and fulfillment, all while keeping it real. Sharing the trials and tribulations of living off-grid, acknowledging the discomfort of detoxing from the modern world, finding pleasure in the subtleties of nature and joy in simplicity. Attempting to understand what makes the world tick and tock but also trying to gain a deeper comprehension of ourselves and identify what will satisfy that hunger for further exploration, for purpose.
