They always said we couldn’t do this…but we still do it. | S2 Ep 7

We woke up for the last time in one of the most beautiful anchorages we’ve found in the Anambas Islands… and set off toward our next destination. But getting there wasn’t straightforward. The route took us back out through a narrow reef pass and into an area scattered with small islands, shallow patches, and channels where the charts aren’t always completely reliable. With our deep-draft boat, it’s the kind of navigation that requires patience, caution, and a slow approach. With light winds, we motored carefully through, letting the kids take part — Tao at the helm and Nemo helping to navigate — before approaching our next anchorage. And then, as we rounded the corner… we saw something we didn’t expect. A waterfall, cascading straight down toward the sea. With our watermaker out of action for the past year, fresh water is something we don’t take for granted — so this quickly turned into a very welcome stop, complete with shampoo and conditioner. While part of the crew rested, the others went ashore and discovered a peaceful stilt village nearby. Later, we all explored together, walking up toward the waterfall and wandering through the village, taking in the slower pace of life. That evening, we ate at a small waterfront restaurant, where Nemo played with the local children — a simple moment that said everything about why we choose this life. ⛵ We are Sailing NV — a family of four living aboard an ex-Vendée Globe ocean racing yacht, sharing the reality of offshore sailing, family life, and exploring Southeast Asia by boat. ❤️ Support Our Journey If you'd like to help us keep sailing + filming, you can support us here: Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/SailingNV Ko-fi: https://ko-fi.com/sailingnv Paypal: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/sailingnv or if you'd like to help us buy something we need, you can check out our amazon wish list https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/1G2NJ0EGJLKR0?ref_=wl_share Thank you so much #sailinglife #indonesia #familyadventure
