Everything all at once... from HAUL OUT to HEARTBREAK! | S4 E12
We return to our boat in Indonesia after a month in Australia and New Zealand — refreshed, restocked, and ready to tackle a fast-paced haulout. But what begins as a straightforward antifoul job quickly unravels into one of the most emotionally intense chapters of our sailing journey.
From dealing with unexpected hull damage and a challenging trailer haulout system, to navigating heartbreaking family news and sudden goodbyes, this episode reminds us that boat life doesn’t stop when life happens.
🔧 Boat Work Highlights:
– Hauling out at Medana Bay Marina using a trailer
– Underside damage and keel repair
– Full antifoul job completed in 72 hours
💔 Personal Moments:
– Tough family phone calls
– Saying goodbye as Kris returns home for a funeral
– Grief, gratitude, and the emotional weight of cruising life
This one’s raw, real, and a reminder that the sea doesn’t always wait for the storm to pass.
📍 Location: Northern Lombok, Indonesia
