All in Season 6
Welcome back to WE|Sail! Last week we finished our big sail south to New Zealand and got checked into the country. On this week's episode we don't waste any time and get our butts up to the small port where we haul out. We go through the similar process where that we have experienced six time before, and safely get the boat out of the water, and then its straight to work! The question is will we have time to explore New Zealand and do boat work?
Welcome back to WE|Sail! We Made It to New Zealand! After 7 days at sea, we finally make landfall in New Zealand, marking the end of a surprisingly smooth passage from Minerva Reef. The feeling of stepping ashore is pure magic, and our first mission? Find some delicious food and grab a few passage beers to toast to our success and safe arrival!
Welcome back to WE|Sail! We set sail for New Zealand expecting one of the toughest passages of our journey yet—wet, rough, and challenging conditions. At least that's what this leg has a reputation for. Instead, we got blue skies, calm seas, and a surprisingly smooth ride! Spoiler alert: we didn’t even need our foul weather gear.
Welcome back to WE|Sail! Sailing to New Zealand didn’t go exactly as planned! After leaving Tonga, we made a pit stop at the remote and stunning Minerva Reef—but Mother Nature had other plans.

Join us as we navigate weather forecasts, unexpected challenges, and life in one of the most isolated places on Earth. Will we make it to New Zealand? Or will this detour turn into a longer stay?
