  • In this episode, we leave the safety of Vanuatu to sail through the Solomon Islands, towards Papua New Guinea. With some recent incidents of piracy in the area, we have to sail with precaution and defend ourselves against pirates, and be very careful if and when we stop in the Solomon Islands...
    SV Parlay is a hurricane damaged Lagoon 450 catamaran, which Colin rebuilt with friends and has started sailing around the world. We found bulkhead damage on their catamaran in Panama, so have fixed her up, and are now sailing across the Pacific Ocean!!

    I have a friend that went to Papua new Guinea 7 time at the same port no problems but on the 8th time was attacked , had his face smashed with a gunbutt he pull up anchor and sailed back to Australia. He said many times at night they were approached by men in canoes ,he and wife have been sailing south pacific Islands, New Guinea ,Indonesia, Solomon's, Philippines for the past 11 years

    As a farmer the benefit of having a thermal scope can not be understated. It gives you such a great understanding of what is happening a night without being seen. Now obviously I use it for pest control but I can imagine it would come in very handy for scoping the horizon at night from a boat.

Fond memories meeting the locals and catching and eating coconut crab there...As you would be aware best to have the blessing from the chief or intro from your last port before exploring this part of the world, if possible. This is where you truly mean it when you say ...Stay safe!
    I know this vid is in the past..just shareing my experience for others.

    Some of The most dangerous places I've been to didn't have guns either. Conversely the safest were where everyone was armed in some way. Danger comes from people with dark intentions in their hearts. Not from what they might carry as weapons.
    PS. Check out the Byrna Launcher. It's a non lethal way to defend yourself. It uses compressed air to lauch paintball size pellets that will oeave a welt or tear gas pellets that incapacitate.

    Great timing on this episode Colin! I just crewed on a 50‘ Benateau from Honiara Solomon Islands onto Port Moresby Papua New Guinea on the south side of Papua New Guinea. Didn’t see any pirates luckily but also had shitty winds. Either head winds or no wins. I decided to jump ship and Papua New Guinea and explore the Port Moresby area and do some scuba diving. Winds looked horrible for the leg to Kei Islands. Im going to fly the rest of the way to Indonesia. Luckily, catching the Brisbane International open tennis tournament for the second time in two years. I fly onto Bali and hopefully exploring Komodo Island in the next few weeks. Still interested in joining you guys for a bit if you have room. Cheers and Sail on Amigo!

    The Solomons have quite a few spoken dialects so one can only imagine the difficulties with tribal and government coexistence and certainly foreign travelers can expect some friction given the isolated island communities. Papua New Guinea has an even more crazy number of unique spoken languages estimated at around 800+. You’ll def see things few get to experience first hand. I’m just a little jealous and look forward to your first impressions.
