Pacific crossing on a Mason 63 (pt 1)
Refit, sea trial, cast off—and a 3,300-nautical-mile Pacific crossing begins. In this episode, we set sail aboard Te Vega, a 1984 Mason 63 ketch, beginning a long offshore passage from Hawaii to California. You’ll see the refit work, sea trials, and the moment we finally cast off and commit to the open ocean. This is the start of a multi-part series documenting what offshore sailing is really like—long days, real preparation, real decisions, and life aboard a serious bluewater monohull far from land. If you’re curious about offshore passagemaking, classic heavy boats, or what it actually takes to go the distance, this series is for you.
