Has This EVER Been Done? Foiling Behind a Catamaran in SOLOMON ISLANDS | S3 E29
“We’re always pushing boundaries out here on the water—this time, it’s tow-foiling behind our home!”
In this episode, we sail through the breathtaking Solomon Islands on our journey to Papua New Guinea, pushing both our limits and the boundaries of what’s possible aboard a sailing catamaran. With the wind in our sails, we try something we’ve never seen before—tow-foiling behind Happy Days! Could this be a first?
Along the way, we anchor at Liapari Island, explore the only ‘marina and haul-out’ in the Solomons, and stumble upon an untouched surf break that may never have been ridden before. We take time to snorkel, surf, and soak in the beauty of these remote islands, but the clock is ticking. With the season threatening to shift, bringing strong headwinds, we must keep moving to reach Indonesia.
The journey continues as we make a quick stop at Taro Island, arriving under the cover of darkness and departing at sunrise to stay ahead of the weather. It’s a race against time, full of adventure, challenges, and moments of pure magic on the water.
