Not What We Expected Sailing To Luwuk Sulawesi - Series 5 Episode 136
After all our recent solitude in isolated islands around Northern Sulawesi, we anchored right in the centre of the City of Luwuk and were in for plenty of surprises, meeting other cruising sailors for the first time in months, an unexpected visit from Port Police, and finding hoards of screaming motorcycles racing around the city streets for the annual Bangai Cup.
Following three tough days battling an engine breakdown, no wind, too much wind and an incredibly uncomfortable sea state generated by strong counter currents on our way back from the Togean Islands, we were very relieved to be safe in the calm waters of Luwuk Harbour. Now it was time to take a break and enjoy the city.
