Engine Issues 1,000 Miles From Land | Fiji to Tahiti Pacific Crossing

🌊 Fiji to Tahiti | 900 Nautical Miles into Our Pacific Ocean Crossing After six weeks waiting in Fiji for the right weather window, we finally begin our 2,000-mile Pacific Ocean crossing to French Polynesia. This episode covers the first five days of our offshore passage from Fiji to Tahiti aboard our long-range Selene trawler. Departing Fiji, we settle into the rhythm of bluewater cruising across the South Pacific. Running at an average speed of 8 knots, we cover more than 900 nautical miles in just five days — a strong start to this Fiji to Tahiti passage. With calm seas and favorable weather conditions, this portion of our Pacific crossing feels almost surreal. Time on the flybridge, endless ocean views, open-water sunrises, and steady offshore progress remind us why we chose long-distance trawler cruising and ocean passagemaking as our lifestyle. But even during a smooth Pacific Ocean passage, offshore reality always keeps you honest. On the final night of this segment of our Fiji to French Polynesia crossing, we encounter unexpected engine issues mid-Pacific. While not catastrophic, mechanical problems during a 2,000-mile ocean crossing demand immediate attention — especially when you are hundreds of miles from land. In this episode you’ll see: • Our departure from Fiji bound for Tahiti • Life aboard during a South Pacific offshore passage • Long-range trawler cruising at 8 knots • 900 nautical miles covered during the first five days at sea • Watch schedules and flybridge life during bluewater cruising • Diagnosing and addressing engine issues during an open-ocean crossing This video offers a real look at Pacific Ocean passagemaking under power — the beauty of the South Pacific, the discipline of offshore cruising, and the importance of systems management during a long-distance ocean crossing. If you’re planning a Fiji to Tahiti crossing, researching Pacific Ocean trawler routes, or interested in bluewater powerboat cruising and long-range passagemaking, this episode captures the realities of crossing the South Pacific. The Pacific crossing continues. ________________________________________________________________________________________ 👀 WATCH NEXT – Don’t Miss These Adventures! 🎬 BIGGEST ANNOUNCEMENT OF OUR LIVES!
