Surviving KOMODO DRAGON encounter OUR AMAZING WEEK sailing Indonesia Ep 184

Surviving KOMODO DRAGON encounter OUR AMAZING WEEK Sailing Indonesia Ep 184 Our sailing journey through Indonesia continues to follow in Rob's brother's footprints as we gentle sail our live aboard catamaran down the south coast of Flores Island replete with its dramatic live volcanic landscape. The ocean was equally alive with bloom of plankton bringing dolphins and devil rays to the surface to feed. Unfortunately the abundance of sea life attracted the attention of some traditional Indonesian fishermen, who prey on the devil rays. As we watched the fishermen at work Rob's attention was distracted by one of the oceans largest and gentlest creatures. A lone 8 metre Whale Shark was happily gorging himself on the plankton. Our sailing teenagers jumped in the water to get a better look. Then it was off to Rinca Island in search of the legendary Komodo dragon. The Island did not disappoint. We saw several Dragons during our stay and a whole lot of plastic waste too.

It took six weeks for Rob and rowing partner, Phil Stubbs, to complete winning the inaugural Atlantic Rowing Race. Skip forward to 2014 and, married with three children, Rob and his wife Rachel purchased Javelot, a 43 ft Fountaine Pajot catamaran. Armed only with Rob's 3 years of racing P class yachts from the age of 11 to 13, and Rachel's non existent sailing knowledge, We set off to learn the ropes of ocean sailing. We broke stuff, replaced stuff and got to know their boat before heading offshore with the kids, Finn (then 13), Declan (then 11) and Ivan (then 8), in tow. Through trial and error we have become confident wayfarers, kind of. The plan? To sail around the world. Part of the journey will be retracing Rob’s eldest brother Kerry’s travels at sea. Using Kerry’s original letters from the 1970’s we hope to retrace his movements from Australia through Indonesia and South East Asia to Cambodia where Kerry’s life was cut short after straying into Cambodian waters in 1978. Kerry and two friends were attacked by a Khmer Rouge gun boat, captured, tortured and executed. www.brothernumberone.co.nz ***** Follow us in real time on Instagram and Facebook @thecruisingkiwis @finn_hamill @declan_hamill @ivanhamill #TheCruisingKiwis
