    Sailing from the tiny remote island of Savu to the famous Komodo National Park, Indonesia. I love it when you finish a passage without breaking anything and can just really enjoy the place you've arrived at. We chilled a couple of days at Rinca in Komodo then pushed on 230nm to Ekas in Lombok with some of the best sailing conditions of the trip so far. What a pleasure.
    Thanks for watching

    Loving your vids...brilliant.
    Wondering more about your catamaran, particularly weight, length, beam.
    It seems to perform fantastic in the light air...more sailing and less motoring = less money spent on fuel.
    Keep it up Vern, excellent! 👍

    Nice! Getting you places, you must love that boat! Btw, the South Atlantic looks fun this week! Which free website could I use to check the conditions like wind, waves, pressure (and what else?)? Double question there, haha!

    • @SailingLearningByDoing
      @SailingLearningByDoing  9 місяців тому +2

      Thanks. Windy is a good free website and app. I pay for the full version as you get way more but the free one is ok too

    Almost there ! Great to see the boat working out for you. You seem very comfortable with it. I'd be interested what the AIS looks like when you can see those ships around you at night. Best to you and all family for the New Year and yourplanning for next trip !

    Great video Vernon, nice to see the cat performing so well. Can you tell us which drone you chose?

    • @SailingLearningByDoing
      @SailingLearningByDoing  9 місяців тому +2

      Yep, she's ripping. I have the DJI Mavic 3 pro. (and a mini 3 pro for the footage while sailing)

    Hello Vern another awesome video. And yea the cat was moving good 6.9 apparent wind you were going 6.5 I'd say that is EXCELLENT!! If you ever get the chance maybe you have go on a Komodo Dragon tour well worth it. When you do a high pitch squeal like a pig them dragons tend to charge. Luckily the guide has a stick shaped like a Y and that works if they get to close lol.
    Hopefully you are spending New Years in France with Marie the baby and Marie's Family. Anyhow Happy New Year Vern and Marie !!! from Canada

      Thanks mate, yeah cant really ask for more from a boat built in 1996. Gotta keep em light to move good. We are indeed all together in France right now. Enjoying every minute with our new little bundle of joy.

    Enjoyed this Vern! We took a scooter from Lombok to Flores and dived the Komodo’s, the currents were crazy!

      the best way to enjoy Indo by land is on a scooter. We love renting them and ripping around.

    Nice footage of the dragon on the beach. Doesn’t matter matter where you go now, every coastline is lined with bloody trash. Shame.
    Always enjoy your vids.
    Happy new year.

    • @SailingLearningByDoing
      @SailingLearningByDoing  9 місяців тому +1

      Very true, Indo is especially bad with the trash it's the one thing that makes us sad here. Frustrating too as there not much you can do about it personally.

    So cool for a dragon to turn up on the beach right on cue.
