Remote Sailing With Kids: Jungle Anchorages & Ocean Miles | S4 E15
We’re back at sea! This episode follows our family as we sail over 700 nautical miles along the remote southern coast of Java. With the trade winds finally starting to fill in, we make the most of our first real opportunity to head further west through Indonesia — no stops, no signal, just wide open ocean and off-grid life.
Kris heads off on a quick visa run (thanks to a bureaucratic hiccup), leaving Mum to take each of the kids on a little surprise one-on-one “Mum date” before setting sail. We prep for the passage with provisioning, fuel, and weather routing, and then it’s time to go remote.
From life at sea to anchoring in a wild jungle spot, this episode captures what it’s really like to sail full-time as a family — the beauty, the logistics, and the little moments that make it all worthwhile.
⛵ Watch as we:
– Sail 700nm along Java’s southern coast
– Anchor off a remote jungle
