Pacific Crossing - Sailing from Marshall Islands to Kosrae Micronesia - Ep #51

Sailing from Majuro Atoll in the Marshall Islands to Kosrae in Micronesia. 25 knots of wind and confused seas between the atolls of the RMI doesn't stop me from chopping a coconut with a machete.

Hi, I’m Markus Pukonen and this is my Adventure Travel Vlog Series. I am travelling around the planet without ever using motorized transport. I started this journey in Toronto, Canada in July of 2015 and intend to circumnavigate back to where I started.

In this weekly youtube series (Every Sunday at 4PM EST) I will share my day to day experiences of what it’s like to travel around the earth under my own power (with help from some wind and currents too!). Loads of epic adventure videos I’m happy to share with you.

SPOILER ALERT:!!

I started the journey in a canoe and have since trimaraned, hand cycled, pogosticked, tricycled, skiied, rafted, kayaked, SUPed, rowed, bicycled, sailed, walked, and danced half way around the planet.

I watched this video like 2 years ago and picked up that “u called that a knife” & “this is a knife” line and been using it every day since and now here we meet again.

[michaelwarwick]

How do the Locals like a 30ft solo sailor nowadays? Vanes: watch for vortex turbulence on its sensing blade. Also any cuts can go septic, in the Tropics. You Rock! and Roll 'On! MATEY

I thought it was Hans Moleman who said that phrase, but it is originally Croc Dundee who said it.

[freerangewhanau]

Oh man, nice work not taking your hand off with the crocodile dundee knife! Just found your channel, epic!

[undersail]

Great video... how do you find the Alberg 30 for cruising the Pacific Ocean.?

[zachhoy]

Kosrae, a new name, I checked it out on Google Maps, that narrows is legit

[DPerez-ypzr]

Is the engine functional or do you not use because of pollution or whatever reason?

[bscturk]

Awesome journey brother! What did you do with your sink?! I've single-handed 10, 000miles... I had a motor, just no windvane. Keep the dream alive!

Rio wants to know why you put your hand under the coconut while you were cutting? Ocea wants to know if you got to surf?
