This was a trip up Southampton Water to the River Hamble. SotonMet logged it as F6 gusting F7. We were double reefed on the main with about 4/5 rolls in the jib. The wind was strong enough that we struggled to motor mainly because of the short chop. She sailed extremely well though, tacking all the way - 14 miles or so in total.

Komodo is famous for its dragons — but that’s only part of the story. Beyond the iconic lizards, this remote corner of Indonesia is home to manta rays gliding through clear waters, whale sharks moving calmly below the surface, wild water buffalo roaming open savannas, dolphins swimming alongside the boat, and wild boar living freely along the coast. This is Komodo as it really is: raw, diverse, and alive — above and below the water. If you’re curious to see Komodo beyond the highlights, the journey matters just as much as the destination. 👉 Explore our Komodo & Beyond voyages at link on bio! #Indonesia #sailingadventure #wonderfulindonesia #liveaboard #sailing #RajaAmpat #Komodo #Flores #SpiceIslands Begin your incredible adventure with SeaTrek right here: 🗺 Schedule | https://www.seatrekbali.com/schedule/ ⛵️ Website | https://www.seatrekbali.com 📚 SeaTrekker Magazine | https://www.seatrekbali.com/seatrekker-magazine/ 📧 Contact Us | info@seatrekbali.com 𝗪𝐞'𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐬𝐨𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐦𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐚 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐬 𝐭𝐨𝐨!
