Two other guests arrive aboard Aquarius and we take off from Krabi Boat Lagoon. Our initial destination - Phuket Yacht Haven where we will get our engine checked by Volvo Penta. We jump in an open water as it's a hot day without much wind and have some fun! And we can't make it all the way...
Long Awaited day has come - Aquarius is getting it's final checks and whatever fixes we were able to do so far and going back to the water! What a day! The luck is on our sides and all goes well and we also finish up with some nice party with our friends on Aquarius - like good old times :D

In the previous video we showed as we arrived in Krabi Boat Lagoon where our Amel Super Maramu 2000 - Aquarius was hulled out as COVID was in full swing and plans remained unclear. Now we are back to get her ready and continue the circumnavigation.
We have to apologize as Aquarius is in a boat yard...
There are a lot of things that I would like to do on Aquarius to make her look better, and be more comfortable. So, now that I have the time.... Why not get started? So, this is just a taste of the changes to come.... Replacing the front seat and changing the bow navigation lights.
Thanks so m...
I made it through the 10 days of quarantine in Bangkok, only to find out that a few squatters had moved onboard Aquarius. The parent ended up removing them from the boat, but I did have to clean up their mess!
Thanks so much for watching 🙏
