It’s not the yacht. It’s the people. That’s why it feels like home. 🤍⚓️ I’ve watched it happen trip after trip. At first, it’s just a yacht. Clean. Neutral. Quiet. Then people arrive. Shoes kicked off. Bags dropped. Someone makes tea. Someone laughs too loud. Kids leave wet towels. Someone forgets a book on the table. Music starts playing. And slowly, the yacht changes. It fills with conversations, shared meals, silly moments, deep talks at sunset. People cooking together. Dancing a little. Sitting close when the sea gets quiet at night. Sometimes it’s a bit messy. Sometimes loud. Sometimes emotional. But that’s exactly when it stops feeling like a yacht…and starts feeling like home.

This one did not go to plan. Rather than follow the crowd and go along with the Sail to Indonesia Rally fleet to Banda Nera, we intended to day hop along a series of islands from Kei Kecil to explore the remote and seldom visited northern coast of Seram in north western Indonesia but the weather didn’t play the game. After a first night stop at Pulau Kur where we were unexpectedly met by machete wielding youths, we struck out north for a short passage to an island where we had identified three likely looking anchorages. Unfortunately the wind and swell conspired against us making all of them untenable, so we elected to sail on through the night to a Plan B but, when it and then Plan C also didn’t work out, we were forced into coming up with a plan D. When we did finally find shelter add in getting summoned by local officials and having Police onboard and this episode makes for an interesting tale. We hope you enjoy it.
