Just sailing for you all today. The passage from Misool to Sorong was wet and wild so we just kept it simple and filmed. Not much talking here.
Enjoi.

Good morning, so today we are leaving Misool and we are back to Raja Ampat,
0:21
like the part too Sorong the part i know already and it's uh it's super weird. This
0:28
crossing was my first crossing and i remember was quite terrific for me
0:36
it was probably the same weather but it was the first one and i remember all the feelings of my
0:43
and organs moving inside the waves for the first time i was feeling sick
0:50
and yeah even going back to raja ompat it was full collided when we left and we had
0:57
more than one year of just sailing around and it's a bit weird to go back it's when it started for me
1:46
uh
2:02
thank you
2:30
uh
2:56
right we've anchored up about 15 miles out of sarong because the
3:02
the tidal currents coming down through here i'll show you this google earth um picture but it's a
3:06
bunch of little islands and channels and basically it doesn't make sense to motor against the tide
3:11
so we made it up until the tide changed and then we pulled up here and anchored outside this tiny
3:16
island and uh yeah it turns out there's just bats everywhere so here's a little bit of drone footage
3:20
and we're about to pull up the anchor the boat's starting to turn around now
3:24
um tide's starting to move and we'll motor into sarong this tiny island we are close to
3:35
there are crazy bats here they are so noisy thousands and thousands of them
3:42
i would say there are some flying fox really red hair one and some other i don't know what they are
3:48
they're a bit more small but still like quite big bats black with super short hair and they
3:55
are all yelling even when they are sleeping it's just crazy they're just non-stop we are here for
4:01
one or two hours and they just like give me a headache to be honest but it's so nice to
4:05
watch them with the binocular and to observe what they are doing they are really interesting animals
4:54
for two hours
5:09
sailing is okay but it's not really your ride
5:29
getting salty we are all sprayed the inside of the boat's still dry though
5:34
she doesn't leak everything's breaking on this boat but it still doesn't leak
6:37
so
6:58
oh
7:14
i
7:40
ah
8:05
all right so we finally anchored up here and so wrong uh yeah this sort of close the circle
8:12
a little bit we left sarong at the start of covert a bit more than a year and a half ago now
8:19
and uh yeah went on the adventure down to well basically bali and then back to roti and yeah
8:24
you've seen all the videos if you haven't go back and look it and there's a bunch of them
8:28
pretty stoked to be back here not so wrong itself it's not the most beautiful place to be honest but
8:32
um yeah it's all familiar we know what's going on and uh looking forward to showing marie a bit
8:39
more of raja umput and yeah exploring some new stuff there's still new stuff for me to see here
8:45
and as i said the boat needs some work it needs a refit and i'll go down to darwin as soon as as
8:51
soon as you don't have to quarantine down there basically which i've heard might already be
8:55
happening now so yeah might go into darwin soon would be awesome to go to a different country
9:05
hey boys
9:10
yeah yeah some inquisitive locals beautiful light here right now hey look at this i look like a
9:16
bitty model right now two of you commented when i got my hair cut that i look like david beckham
9:23
how lucky is this girl huh she's got david beckham as a captain captain david now i normally get sean
9:31
penn but i never had david beckham before anyway thanks patrons you guys are awesome we've been um
9:38
actually saving money the last few months we have you know we've been at anchor we
9:42
haven't been spending anything more than just getting food and some some fuel really
9:47
so in putting a little bit away and uh yeah thanks that we've been able to do that but uh obviously
9:52
i just spoke of the refit and i can count up on yeah you got like i've got like at least
10:01
15 grand on that i could do right now on the boat so all of that money that i've saved up will be
10:07
used for that well and more obviously that haven't saved that much up but yeah so anyway just so you
10:12
know that your money is going towards keeping this boat uh seaworthy and in good condition and
10:18
that we can have confidence in it nothing's broken but obviously the electronics the batteries
10:22
um i've got to redo the anti-foul all this sort of thing so thanks to you guys for
10:27
that that we're putting away some money to to get the boat back into its former glory
10:31

10:38
