THE VOYAGE

The Voyage

Wilderness of Waves is a blog by solo sailor, filmmaker & artist Olivia O Wyatt.

She is sailing her 34 ft. boat, Juniper, to destinations guided by humpback whale migration patterns.

In August 2019, she single-handed from San Diego to Hawaii. It took her 23 days. She and Juniper are now in Tahiti.

Follow along as she wanders the seas in search of magic.

This is my life raft. Her name is Cherry Two Two. And that’s what my face will look like if Juniper sinks and I’m forced to float around, in the middle of a foaming sea, inside of Cherry Two Two. 🍒 The other day someone asked my advice on buying a cruising boat. If I could go back in time, my future self would give my past self these hot tips.....⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣

This one time in French Polynesia a booby landed on me. Boobies are my guardian angels at sea. One sailed across the Pacific with me. I named him Pluto. Whenever the sea was rough and wild and I didn’t want to be alone, he was there, sitting above the companionway. It was total magic. He left digested fish guts all over my instrument panel, but the stench was worth it and reminded me that he was real. So many things are imagined out at sea... it’s surrealism at its finest.
