Squall Sailing and pirate scare Solomon Islands - Sailing Nandji, Ep 63
We leave the Santa Cruz Islands and sail over 400nm to Honiara, Solomon Islands. With little wind, little fuel, head winds and lots of Squalls, will we make it in time to get our dog Marley??? Who are these 10 huge men approaching in a fast boat?? COMMENT what you would do in that situation.

In this episode of Sailing Nandji, with our 54 extra litres of diesel we got from selling rum to the police of Nendo island, we depart the Santa Cruz group of islands and head to Honiara where we are due to collect our dog Marley. Sailing on schedule is never a good idea, as it creates extra stress and pressure. With little wind for days and limited fuel, we jump from squall to squall, utilising the wind from each weather system. With long patches of no wind then a head wind for 4 days, we pound our way up the Indispensable straight towards Honiara. Arriving in the nick of time with plenty of diesel . to spare!
We are a young couple with a dog, who with no sailing experience, then bought a yacht, got it blue water cruising ready and set off, sailing around the Pacific! SUBSCRIBE TO OUR CHANNEL.
