Is Sailing in Indonesia Safe? 🐍🏴‍☠️🌀 | Podcast 025

Sailing in Southeast Asia is as easy or as difficult as you make it. Like any part of the world, it is planning and preparation that keep you safe and happy on a sailboat. We believe it is no more dangerous or difficult than any other area, in fact we think it's often safer! In our latest VIDEO PODCAST, we talk about our experiences over the last 10 years of sailing in Southeast Asia, through Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia. Although cruising in this unique sailing ground is an incredible experience that should be on every cruiser's bucket list, there are some challenges to think about. In this video podcast we chat about the difficulties and challenges of sailing in SE Asia, bust the myths, and cover off subjects like: ⚆ Sailing conditions - is it all just motoring? ⚆ Weather - typhoons, monsoons, squalls ⚆ Cultural differences ⚆ Language ⚆ Dangers - pirates, weather, navigation ⚆ Clearance - visas, vaccinations etc JOIN OUR SUPPORTERS & CARRY ON THE CHAT: PATREON | FTBMates | Rum Fund - https://followtheboat.com/pub/ DISCORD (It's free!) - https://discord.gg/WGtsJubdkE If you enjoyed this video, let us know with SUPER THANKS! ☝️🙏 Thank you for watching!
