Boat Life - Lifting Out Our Sailing Home in Trinidad

Hurricane season is when many liveaboard cruisers in the Caribbean haul out and store their boats on land, and with plenty of work still to do, we decided to do the same. We chose Peake Yacht Services

The Fountaine Pajot Elba 45 is one of the most succesful models from FP. She took all of the great design features from the Helia 44 and Saba 50, and incorporated them into one of the most well-thought-out mid-forty foot catamarans on the market today. Starting with a solid foundation, Harmony takes it to the next level with her bluewater upgrades, including: - Upgraded Volvo Motors w/ Folding Props - Full Garmin Electronics Package - Watermaker - Lithium Battery Bank - Custom Solar Array - Hydraulic Platform - Squaretop Mainsail - Code Zero w/ Bowsprit - Parasailor - Upgraded Fusion Stereo System If you have any other questions on the boat, please don't hesitate to reach out.

We sail to a complex of reefs in remote Sulawesi, Indonesia and discover a great anchorage at a tiny island. Here we are enthusiastically welcomed by the villagers, who tell us we are the very first westerners ever to visit their stunning home. They proudly showed us around their small but truly beautiful island where seaweed farming and fishing are the central way of life. After an all to short stay, we sail further north to Bojowe Harbour on the Sulawesi mainland where we race to anchor before a fierce monsoonal storm that strikes with big winds and driving rain. Did we make it? Let's call it a draw. We have just begun our exploration of this, the world's 11th largest island but already we have fallen in love with sailing this remote area populated by such warm, welcoming people. Thank you so much for watching. You're the guys and girls who float our boat and keep us motivated.
