Solo Sailing Adventure: Navigating Polynesian Waters and Embracing Rest

Day 2: Solo Sailing Tahiti to Tonga (or maybe further 😂)

The only plan for today is to sleep as much as possible. Rest wasn’t much of an option last night as I clear the Polynesian fishing grounds and the spinnaker pole wanted to cause some chaos.

I don’t normally get much sleep as a solo sailor but as with anything, the body learns to adapt. These first few days are the hardest but I know from experience that by day 5 my body will be naturally waking up every hour or so during the night and it will recognise that it’s simply required routine to stay awake, rather than out of danger.

8 days to go, maybe.
