Live Tracking Routes Lighting Up the Pacific

Open the SeaPeople map right now, and you’ll see it.

Not an empty stretch of blue, but a network of boaters spread across the Pacific.

Some are just beginning their crossings from Mexico. Others are already thousands of miles from land. And some are weaving their way through the islands, exploring everything the Pacific has to offer.

It’s a moment that’s hard to ignore.

Lexi from @thepinkpirates captured it perfectly while watching it all unfold:
“Tracking my friends @2brits1box on their Pacific crossing. For reference, this is the middle of the Pacific Ocean. So many people are making their crossing! I’m having major FOMO. I know my time will come, but I wish I was out there.”

And she’s not the only one feeling it.

A Family Crossing the Pacific

SV Kaikoa @Brandy_Kaikoa, a family of four, is currently crossing the Pacific aboard their Dolphin 460 catamaran. With less than 1,000 miles to go, they’re getting close to their destination: the French Marquesas.

From navigating changing sea states and dealing with seasickness to the beauty of waking up in the middle of the ocean surrounded by wildlife, they’re experiencing every part of the journey. Along the way, they’re keeping spirits high playing board games, entertaining the kids, and settling into the rhythm of life at sea.

Every moment is being tracked and saved in their digital logbook. Follow their live route and updates in the SeaPeople app.

Daily Live Updates from the Pacific

After living on a boat for nearly two years between the ages of 19 and 21, @jippieyap is now at 24, taking on his first Pacific crossing from Mexico to French Polynesia with two friends.

They’re currently 18 days into the journey, sharing daily updates along the way. The highs and the lows, their first fish caught, wildlife encounters, constantly changing weather and finally making it through the doldrums, all captured and saved in their digital logbook.
