The END of SAILING + DIVING as We Know It

We're in the final stretch of sailing with our flailing steering system. Just 250 miles stand between us and a much awaited steering refit, which will completely change our sailing experience for the BETTER! But we're unwilling to face a Maramu hurling 14-foot waves on our rudders. The sounds of reason are telling us to wait. One last dive is on the books, the Wall of Sharks in Fakarava, home to hundreds of apex predators. But we weren't prepared for what awaited us in the depths below.

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. We have set off on our voyage sailing around the world! Subscribe now to join our sailing adventure.
