Inside the Selene Explorer Yacht with 71 Per cent

Nathan and Lindsay from 71 Per cent setting off from Australia on their Selene 49 to cross the Pacific toward the United States is a huge milestone. A Pacific crossing is no small feat—it’s thousands of nautical miles, unpredictable weather, and weeks at sea. Documenting it weekly on YouTube means viewers can follow along almost in real time, which makes it even more exciting.

Here are a few things that make this journey special:

• Selene 49: This is a long-range trawler yacht designed for ocean passages. It’s known for comfort and seaworthiness, perfect for a trans-Pacific voyage.
• Pacific Crossing: Depending on their route, they’ll likely stop at islands like Fiji, Tahiti, or Hawaii before reaching the U.S. West Coast. Each leg can take several days to weeks.
• Adventure Content: Weekly YouTube updates will give a window into life at sea—navigation, weather challenges, boat maintenance, and the beauty of remote anchorages.
• Community: Voyages like this often build a strong following, as people love to see the highs and lows of real ocean travel.

If you’re following them, you’ll probably see episodes about provisioning, storm handling, and the joy of landfall after long stretches at sea.
