The GLY World Odyssey 500 yachts brought gifts, their own and gifts received from Byond Relief NZ & Rotary Russel island NZ in Opua to be transported to the 10 local communities visited in May 2023. In order to avoid problems, these 'small' gifts were only given after a public event was arranged with the local village leader so everything was done 'in the open' and shared fairly between the local people. To preserve their dignity, the sailors accepted the generous gifts of fresh fruits & local handicrafts given to them. A win-win situation as it should always be! Thanks also to our fund raising patrons who generously donated solar lights (seen in another video) to these communities. This 'mission' was born after the last 2 tropical cyclones and earthquake that hit Vanuatu in March 2023. Thankfully most communities are quite resilient but still need some help in the aftermath of previous cyclones where little help was received because of pandemic restrictions. Thanks to s/v Fou de Bassan for short video.

We made it to Hawksbill Cays and Fox Town in the Abacos. The sailing life is sweet as we go on dinghy adventures around cays, mangroves and sand bars. Make sure to subscribe for more videos and don't miss our weekly full lenght episodes every Thursday.

Heavy load delivery from the bow of the service boat. This is a typical maneuver every Service Boat operator is capable to do, several times per day.
