last week we visited the vibrant Hvar
and the picturesque pakka Lenny islands
we restocked kawaii before we sailed to
branch where we would pick up Jace's
parents this week the new crew who have
never sailed before are tested with
strong winds on multiple occasions
broken up with beautiful Anchorage's as
we sail south visiting many croatian
towns including Cachola before checking
out of dubrovnik started with 19 not the
wind that moment no one's sick yet
that's a we're talking about training
the conditions look like it's worsened a
nose like you out of the snow dad yeah
I'm fake breaking out the car yeah hey
you gone there mom come come
I think it's eight degrees at the moment
there's snow on my toes feel like it's a
snow on the mountains so uh you know
hopefully we'll get to this Anchorage
and we can have a hot shower
30 second chance as well you got pretty
cool place we've anchored yeah we found
a an old submarine vodka from World War
two and we get up front
how do you feel about being
[Music]
what's happening here it's her party on
the hill now rug they're leaving running
there was a lot to see on the southern
side of Brac Island and after exploring
the submarine bunker the following day
we headed to evolve a blacker Anchorage
and hiked to a monastery in the hills
before sailing to zlatni rat the famous
beach
unfortunately the weather conditions
didn't quite match those of when we
visited last May when we were searching
for our boat so we couldn't stick around
for long
have you gone there mum I trusted your
love enough you're loving tonight your
mouth
any words captain
I wish the conditions is better for you
your can mime your hands holding
something there is it
nine-time don't blame up some of the
some of the tougher conditions we've had
on Kauai captain's doing a great job
they're just riding down the waves
mom you're not drinking but after this
and you are a scotch on the rocks
tonight gosh you're wild
[Music]
I don't really
baby we've been into the shop yep
soy sauce and bread so it's only been
ten hours since your crazy weather
yeah it's beautiful day and we've just
explored this little town robe Oscar
yeah it's really beautiful it's just a
little not much to it but yeah it's got
a good vibe with a tight schedule we
took mum and dad to over in the pack
Eleni Islands where they could explore
before more bad weather was expected
with winds of 30 to 40 knots we grabbed
a mooring ball and watched a bit of
chaos including but not limited to a
drag mooring ball tangled anchors and
some wild sailing before we could again
continue our journey south
[Music]
so you don't know what you do and the
walls are closing it
just remember where we go and remember
where we been
[Music]
yeah in camera rainy day stop breathing
around it's a good spot worse stuff than
just some deaths about a 40 nautical
mile sale today from core Chula to look
wouldn't it from Nick and we've checked
out the winds it looks like it will be
around about 14 knots gusting up to 28
knots and we usually think that the
gusts are going to be the actual wind
because we have experienced that a few
times where consistently throughout the
day the gusts have been the consistent
wind speeds so we're probably looking at
a pretty speedy so today I would say
what set the sails quite cautiously to
start with our conservatively because
there's quite a lot of large mountains
in Croatia and we have experienced some
very strong gusts off mountains in
Greece and here so yeah we'll set them
conservatively to start with and then
hopefully put more out once the winds
once we see what they're doing
we're off again skip
Shuler in the background it's pretty
nice place really
my parents are on the boat still this is
the fourth time we've sailed yeah and
what's what's the consistency we over 20
knots and well to them over 22 them over
25 so for them
[Music]
here we go
[Music]
sound the charge enjoy
[Music]
you better check
you better check for my dad this is your
first time sailing
now what's your first impressions of
sailing and what are your highs and lows
very enjoyable sailing it's very
tranquil eyes when there's plenty of
wind blows when there's no no honestly
it's beautiful so for all those who
haven't sailed when you recommend
definitely get out and have a go
we guys go with someone who knows what
they're doing got a great skipper here
now this is also your first time sailing
is it as good as you hoped yes it is I
loved it
naughty naughty citizen
1% of earlier that I didn't quite enjoy
it when there was a bit of action at
and I wasn't quite sure what was going
on it was a little good yeah we just had
to bring a little bit of style in so
that's a little bit of flapping and
stuff going on but the rest of the
journey has been thoroughly enjoyed you
still get dinner tonight
thanks to that 30 in at least three
times
so most people probably wouldn't be out
in 30 so it's good
nice cool great
well
with the wind continuing to be stronger
than predicted
we found an alternative Anchorage we'd
had more shelter plenty of swinging room
and better holding in mud this
encouraged near the town of Solano was
everything we'd hoped for so we stayed a
couple of nights with the 45-minute bus
trip to Dubrovnik we were able to check
it out your copy cup is there a reason
we just like to get up bright and early
here I'm flying
[Music]
they're off now Nellie's

month is enough but we will be back
Montenegro for a couple of months and

more islands so we're excited about that
