Thought I'd try a new thread to share some of Aeventyr's offshore experiences over the past 13 years. Anybody else like to contribute stories, pictures, interesting cultural events, the kindness of strangers etc? A pic form my voyage to begin...
Was it just a big party or is it some type of celebrating the beginning or end of something? I think it is interesting when fundamental Islam females wrap their faces but are un-escorted by men in the family which to me is similar to owning a sailboat but motoring everywhere in it. Human nature always shines through in that individuals will mostly choose which portions of the rules they wish to follow.
The Sebang Marine Festival is a destination event for sailors in SE Asia. Five days of cultural activities, spirited competitions, evenings under the stars with local dancers and musicians.
The festival is designed to promote yacht tourism to Indonesia. The cruising permit has been eliminated. 30 day Visa on Arrival (VOA) are gratis. Longer term visas available ut a dollar a day.
As much as the event is for the cruising sailor, local participation is huge. Friendly folks here, a great welcome to us all.
Ahh, indonesia what a fantastic beautiful country!!!
