Terima kasih

[@bradphillips6605]

I lived in Indonesia for 1 1/2 years. In the 90’s. It was quite the experience. I made a lot of friends there. It is a beautiful country with extremely gracious people. I hope y’all enjoy your time there as I did. Tidak lupa coba ekan bakar. Selamat jalan

[@loubonaparte5063]

Great episode James/Rhonda!!!!

[@yveslandry6985]

WoWW!! Thank you so much for this wonderful episode!

[@MizzAugust7]

Just listening to you say how much is involved in getting to stay there, was exhausting. I dont know how you dealt with all the BS. I guess you just get used to it. Im glad you knew where you were going, cause, jeeze! I know the scenery will get better as you always share the beauty you find, looking forward to it.Thank you!

[@jaydubya4727]

I'm with Rhonda - that step across, boat to boat to shore access seems very sketchy. Very interesting looking territory, though. Quite colorful and crowded. Looked like adventuresome fun.

[@SailorJames]

Super sketchy step across for sure 😂

[@ratawai]

Enjoyable, informative and entertaining as always. Rhonda sure does cook up some good tucker. Kiwi Tim

[@ronhart8540]

[@Missionman128]

Never change the intro rock star! thanks for the content

[@Mr_Dandypants]

thanks for showing the whole entry ordeal. keep it up man!!!

[@SailorJames]

its challenging for sure !

[@wafflecrunch]

Looks like club med! A wipeout course to get from the dingi and then some archery games at customs! Solid entertainment if you ask me! 🤣

[@SailorJames]

Next level for sure 😂

[@rikkamango8701]

Been following you for 2 years, i never thinking the "Merah Putih", the "Red and White" flag will waving in Triteia. And also the first 5 minute really sum up this country, and our currency is Rupiah, Rupee is India. 4 million rupiah is like $270. Hope you enjoy being here. Also im waiting for the other videos ✌️

[@MISCIFMAKER]

[@shoutatthesky]

That's how most do it!

[@andresinnett4319]

What an exercise in diplomacy , the advice your agent gave was freaky, like when he insisted , don't miss or loose a single document , as this would be bad 🤔 anyhow your all safe and well , and now we can say farewell from OZ, , ps ,keep up the content , it's getting real interesting 👍✌

[@SailorJames]

He stressed that because if you show up to clear out WITHOUT it they will charge you $1000 USD

[@ChernetskiyIvan]

Nice!!!

[@ezradickey505]

I'm having a bowl of green chili while viewing this! Cheers from Denver, J.!!

[@neworleanssailing5292]

Thanks for the tour. The LA & Friends shirts made me laugh.

[@SailorJames]

That friends shirt killed me

[@beccacontis3101]

so good

[@SailorJames]

Thanks Rebecca

[@GeoffMcIntosh-d3d]

Hope you’re doing well. Your videos are great no bull and how good am I like most of others . Continue your videos.

[@SailorJames]

Thanks 🙏🏻 I appreciate that

[@GeoffMcIntosh-d3d]

At least you don’t have your swimsuit up your bum.

[@angelwalker979]

James! You should've got that shirt with LA on it! 😂🤣 Love the new intro. Thanks for sharing guys.🩵⛵️💙

[@SailorJames]

[@byronwarren7779]

Lots of work for entering a country for a short period of time.....safe sailing with greetings from Toronto, Canada. Merry Christmas as well.

[@SailorJames]

That’s how world cruising works

Are you planning a journey to the Suez eventually, & eventually The Mediterranean?

No, I am sailing down to South Africa

[@st1100pilot]

James handling that massive fender bridge like he's done it before. That thing was sketchy.

[@SailorJames]

I excel at danger 😂 house parties are far more terrifying to me 💀

[@shanep5121]

Hey, James. Another great video. Can you tell us about the boat stamp? What information should be in it?

[@SailorJames]

My stamp just says "From the Library of Triteia" which I already had on board for all the books I have onboard. The main thing is it has the boat name and some people get the AIS MMSI number on it as well since thats important in all southeast asian countries

[@shanep5121]

@@SailorJames thanks. One more thing I have to put on the list. Also, I buy every book you mention, lol.

[@KRONIC990]

​@@shanep5121I would love to see the full collection on board!

[@tobyslaststand9137]

Boat stamp ? Where can I get that ? Please explain .

[@SailorJames]

You will need to get one made before sailing to any Southeast Asian country. You can get simple ones made online, I find the "self inking" stamps to be the best option.

[@sadzasnake1755]

James take care of the boat mate. Indonesians are lovely people but boy oh boy very sticky fingers. Seriously don’t leave anything out or unlocked when you are not there. It will go missing. Just my advice to you. Cheers Ken Perth Australia 🇦🇺

[@SailorJames]

Not the first time I have cruising in a sketchy place 👍🏻 I always keep my stuff locked up , thanks for looking out

[@jogrant3851]

Culture shock, haha.

Are you also in touch with Barry The Old Sea Dog? He is not far behind you. It would be nice to keep track of you all down there.

[@SailorJames]

I don’t know him

[@shanep5121]

​​@@SailorJames He's a solo sailor, a lot like Holly Martin if she were in her 60s. They did an episode together. He worked on a rescue boat for a long time. Very solid solo sailor. His channel is Adventures of an Old Sea Dog. He's a musician as well. His videos are very much like yours. Very practical. You learn a lot. He got becalmed in the Timor Sea, had to turn back to Hobart. You guys would have a killer live cast like you did with Holly.

[@jerrybow8779]

@@shanep5121Barry is in South Africa now. His vids are 6 months behind
