Holly Martin is a solo sailor and sailing vlogger best known for sailing her 27-foot sloop Gecko as part of her YouTube channel Wind Hippie Sailing.[2][3][4]

Martin sails a Grinde 27 foot double ender sloop[2] that she purchased in Connecticut and returned to Maine where she spent over a year preparing to make her seaworthy.[5][6][7] Her goal of completing a circumnavigation started in October 2018 when she left Round Pond Maine and headed towards the Panama Canal.[8] After spending time in the Caribbean for a year she transited the Panama Canal and entered the Pacific Ocean in May 2020. After a 41-day solo passage[9][6] to French Polynesia, which she was unable to leave due to COVID-19 restrictions.[4][8][10] While underway Martin is an avid reader,[11] and at anchor she enjoys snorkeling, catching fish,[12] and meeting the new people.[13]

Born in New Zealand,[14] Martin grew up on boats with her parents,[15][16] first on a Cal 25, as they sailed in the south Pacific and later the Arctic where she spent time being schooled in Iceland, Norway, and Canada.[3][17][18][19] She holds a degree in marine biology and worked aboard an Antarctic research vessel as a research support technician.[2][20]
