Catamaran Adrift In Ua-Pou’s Chocolate Bay - Ep. 48 Thula Sailing

A catamaran adrift at sea and nobody but us around in the anchorage! Be part of our little rescue mission next to high cliffs boarding and maneuvering a vessel that is not our own...
Then meet an original, Manfred the 'Schoko Mann', up the dramatic coastline of Ua-Pou who has a very special story to tell. And makes the best organic chocolate we have ever tasted!

Nice save! You two are freaking hero's. Somehow, you should both get medals for your heroism!

Amazing adventure with catamaran, thanks very intriguing.

Хорошая работа и бесценная помощ.

Nice to see Pro active people out there taking initiative and saving a boat. Any sailors worst nightmare to return to an empty mooring not knowing where your boat is. Safe travels.

[@ThulaSailing]

Always wishing others would do the same for you ;)

[@ScoutRehab]

Fascinating to glimpse Manfred's knowledge and chocolate. Very cool.

[@andershallberg6668]

A great video of two great days!

[@DougVarble]

Great video!

[@_Briegel]

Gerade per Zufall über euren Kanal gestolpert. Das was ich bisher gesehen gefällt mir. Schöne Bilder, unaufdringliche Berichte und natürliches Verhalten von euch. Dazu diese Atemberaubenden Landschaften... all das ist mir auf jeden Fall ein Abo wert... auch wenn mich das jetzt einige abende mit euren bisherigen Videos binden dürfte ;-) Macht weiter so, bleibt Gesund und immer eine Handbreit Wasser unter dem Kiel! ++++Translate++++ Just by chance stumbled over your channel. I like what I have seen so far. Beautiful pictures, unobtrusive reports and natural behaviour from you. Plus these breathtaking landscapes... all this is worth a subscription to me in any case... even if this might bind me some evenings with your previous videos ;-) Keep up the good work, stay healthy and always a hand's breadth of water under the keel! Greetings from Germany

Saving a Katamaran for a piece of chocolate (zwinker/smile)...crazy action(!), but it is also an interesting meeting with Manfred...it only needs the discription of the ingredients of the chocolate ...(mmmmhhh lecker!!!)

[@ThulaSailing]

Ah, we did get a whole bunch of grapefruit from the village and some locally carved dried nuts (with spiritual power for the 'anges du baie' as we were called by the villagers to keep us and Thula safe at sea) :) But no need for that. Seamanship is seamanship :) Too bad Manfred doesn't export his chocolate!!

[@sailingavocet]

Cool video! Keep it up :)

[@faksen13]

Drying coconut = copra, used in cosmetic industry.

[@ThulaSailing]

Yes, we found that out later as well :) Still a episode coming up about harvesting copra in the Tuamotu!

[@sailingavocet]

really? wow! The more you know
