Ep10: Out of Drinking Water in Drought Affected Islands of Papua New Guinea...

Episode 10: Sailing Louisiades, Papua New Guinea After a closer inspection, we discovered the reason we were so low on water: most of our fresh drinking supply had leaked into the bilge. Ryan rushed to repair the tank, knowing how scarce fresh water can be in these islands. We nearly sank the kayak trekking through mangroves, scrambling up steep inclines, and navigating winding tracks multiple times, hauling our new water supply back to the boat by hand. All of this, only to wake the next morning sore and exhausted - and find the hull full of the very water we'd spent the entire day collecting. 0:00 - Disaster Strikes: Our Portside Water Tank Burst 0:43 - Intro video 1:16 - Emergency Repair: Fixing the Burst Tank 2:21 - Uh-oh?Another Leak in the Boat?! 3:04 - DIY Fibreglass Boat Repair Hack 5:13 - Into the Bush: Mission to Find Fresh Water 9:31 - We Nearly Sunk the Kayak Carrying Our Water Supply 9:52 - Morning Shock: Starboard Hull Completely Flooded 11:13 - Total Water System Failure - Both Tanks Are Broken Places: Sudest Island, Louisiades Archipelago, Papua ew Guinea Buy us a coffee ? https://buymeacoffee.com/onceuponareef Or Send us a gift ? https://throne.com/onceuponareef Follow us: ?INSTAGRAM: @onceuponareef & @wheres.poppy ?PATREON ? https://www.patreon.com/c/onceuponareef Poppy's YouTube Channel ? https://www.youtube.com/wherespoppy ?
