If you follow YouTube adventurers Lindsey and Nathan of The 71 Percent, you probably know that they just landed safely in French Polynesia after a nine day voyage from Tahiti. Up next is one of the more challenging legs of their cross-Pacific journey, as they head north toward Hawaii.
Just before they set off on their trip of lifetime, the couple visited Zhuhai, China in December to celebrate Selene’s new Shipyard Expansion. There, they toured a still in-build Selene 64 Ocean Explorer and discussed their cruising plans with Wayne and Dylan of Selene Americas.
With over 10,000 nautical miles of blue water in front of them and everything at stake, it’s no surprise the conversation gets a little emotional.
Whether you want to see a Selene Classic Explorer in action or just get to know a pair of the most fun and genuine people around, we highly recommend you subscribe to The 71 Percent.
