Ep 68 - Ist das der BESTE Ankerplatz bisher? - Sailing Sea Pearl

This is our marine professional with whom we have been exploring the seas of our world since August last year, always looking for beautiful places and great photographs. My husband Matthias and I, Luisa, hope you come on board every Sunday and be the first. -mano Thank you for that Check out your likes and comments on our videos After our journey from Tonga in the Cook Islands over 1350 nautical miles, we arrived at Servo Sabo officici in the last episode, cleaning the boat, enjoying the quiet bay and waiting. for the authorities to pass because the wait this time takes Luisa a little longer than expected to bake a cake and we hope to simplify the process a little with the officials because the officials don't want to be filmed, we don't.

We don't have any materials, just a lot of paper and a lot of forms, but overall the process was easy for us and we can see the flag of the host country, Hesse, in the city, we clearly notice the Indian and Chinese influence in Fiji and we make our way, partly by taxi and partly on foot, to pay the various declaration fees and buy some food the next day, go further east to the island of tawbioni, it is a shame that we can no longer enjoy the beautiful place and the more beautiful. Bahía, what is Luisa doing because she is decorating the boat for her birthday?

Congratulations honey, we have benefited from the Bavarian aid package from My Dad Found Meatloaf from over a year ago and today. We have it in Tiziano cheese and onion bread. In honor of Luisa's birthday, we even get to enjoy some great

sailing

and a family from Pilotwale also stops by for a moment. Now we are anchored in front of Tavigioni Island, there is Paradise Bay. Paradise Bay Resort, it is still quite windy and therefore quite wavy. The anchorage is not very calm and that is the case, so we did not want to let ourselves go to the buoy because it is very rocky.

We are allowed to go to the buoy. buoy tomorrow if we want to lie down, but definitely for dad and Andreas and the anchor is holding well. We can see behind us in the 6 meter deep water the corals at the bottom, the colorful fish swimming, super cute, I wanted that. already in the water it's nice but we had a little stretch when anchoring because we or before anchoring we actually kept the sail and the engine at idle and when we wanted to go shopping um the speed went down more and more and went down even more.

There is obviously something wrong with the diesel system, or this pest, I hope it is very nice, maybe it is just air in the system. In any case, we still have ten days until the next marina and we want the engine to be properly serviced. hoping so. It's nothing bad, maybe just the filter is closed or you just need to let some air out, maybe you need to clean the tank too, but it's definitely strange because the engine just stopped so that's what happens. It's happening on the front lines and we're talking about it. The sail had already been removed, of course we were able to deploy it again and we still had a lot of space, i.e. about 100 meters of space, but it doesn't feel very good. when you are actually under the engine and the engine stops close to the ground.

But it was good, we made it, then we ran it again because Matías Manuel was pumping while I started it, so everything is good and now the wind should blow. it calms down, um early in the afternoon, so it'll probably be quieter overnight, but let's see. We will see how long we will stay here because tomorrow we will continue running to be able to take advantage of the windless day. tomorrow to head southeast, that is, in the direction of the prevailing wind, and then look at some garden island anchorages at the resort and then we will pick up Luisa's dad and Andrea.

Let's enjoy the sunset and then we will go to enjoy a delicious meal. The hotel staff even serenades Luisa. We still experience this often on these islands. Here singing is simply part of it and it is a pleasure to experience the enthusiasm with which we locals set off the next morning. We announced calm towards the east towards Lauglobe, unfortunately the wind picked up during the day, contrary to all forecasts, and came directly from the front. We made our way and made it through the entrance to Banua Balla, where it was daylight. to get to the anchorage Then unfortunately the anchor can't hold anymore but it's still fine and we slept well at night.

As our first stop on the lauglobe we go to the town to receive a welcome gift of torcido, some dried roots and sevo. ceremony, unfortunately without photographs because it seemed too spiritual to us. To get permission to use the town's resources and also the anchorage, later that day we arranged a guided tour by the chief to something like the tourism officer. Unfortunately, our outboard motor. It breaks and then we return to the boat until the entrance to Iceland Bayer is spectacular, weaving narrowly between eroded limestone towers and rocks to an absolutely sheltered anchorage in unreal blue waters.

For us, this is one of the most impressive. anchors of our trip so far Thanks to the village guide, then we will see incredibly beautiful corners with the boat, first underwater caves with a great play of colors, excuse the fogged-up GoPro case, very narrow passages between the limestone rocks . corals below us, another cave where warriors gathered before a fight and finally a huge colony of flying foxes, the largest local mammals. I only managed to repair the outboard motor the next morning by cleaning the carburetor, but look at this background. , incredibly beautiful and underwater it is as wonderful as in an aquarium.

After these beautiful impressions, we look for a way out of the rock maze and we do it. We set out on a night trip back west, we have a strong wind and. After about an hour there is a huge mahimai on our new hand line, food for the next few days is assured. Our destination is Macogai Island, about 140 nautical miles away, again there is a rift passage with the help of satellite images. and then we hide anchored in front of a large area of ​​rain, there are fish plants and so we can protect ourselves from bad weather.

We'll show you our family time in Fiji again here next week. from your comments Like our videos if you haven't already, you will do us a big favor if you also subscribe to our channel until next Sunday
