sailing to DESERT Islands DESERT Islands and DRONE Fun ☕️ Support our videos: https://ko-fi.com/sailingdoubletrouble Pigotti Island was used by the Japanese in World War 2 to provide electricity to Taroa island. Today it is pretty much deserted. We explore the remains of the generator building and stumble over old bomb casings on the beach. Daisy is finally allowed to take to the skies and brings us back some beautiful shots. We cool off with some snorkelling and we enjoy the company of a hunting octopus or two....

We are Jo and Rob and we are here to share our sailing adventures with you. In 2016, inspired by the likes of ‘Delos’, ‘Sailing La Vagabonde’ and ‘Gone with The Wynns’, we sold up everything we owned and bought our 40ft, Fountaine Pajot ‘Lipari 41 Evo’ sailing catamaran ‘Double Trouble’. We had no sailing experience whatsoever, so the past few years have been a huge learning curve. We thought it might be fun to document our travels for anyone thinking of following a similar lifestyle. So far we have visited 7 different countries and sailed over 13,000 nautical miles. We have had many unique experiences that would not have been possible in our prior life and we don’t regret a second. We're both super keen on protecting our precious environment, so amongst other things, we both follow a plant based diet. You wont find any fishing footage on this channel!

several different names on the charts

and it looks really beautiful rob's in

having a snorkel on our ranch which i

believe is over there what's occurring

it's laundry day

because our washing machine's dead isn't

it yep

it's spun its last so we're now hand

washing

which is about as much fun as poking

yourself in the air with a blonde

daffodil really isn't it yeah well we've

um

we had a lot of rain yesterday so we

actually collected this is all just rain

water so

it's free tada

pretty good right ringing out stage

yep the hand washing but it's not too

bad it's just the i missed the spin

dryer because they're

dripping wet aren't they oh they're a

little bit damp but it's a nice sunny

day i'm being an optimist

i like that

going ashore we were on the boat all day

yesterday

and let's have a fever time to get off

hard sound as well oh it is actually yes

uh

sinking a little bit side's going out

still tiger so

we should be okay there coming short to

try and fly daisy

we'll hunt here and we assume there's

nobody in it at the moment are we

assuming it's probably used by the

fishermen hey that come in

little solar panel there

yeah it looks like it let's see if we

can have a walk through the

jungle to the other side

yep see the sea

oh yes loads of plastic on the seawood

side

plastic for days on the windward side

let's see good side

i knew what i meant always flip-flops

fishing floats plastic bottles

styrofoam you name it it's all here gosh

the lots of pretty side of paradise

wow beautiful out here apart from the

plastic

just walking around and there'll be an

artillery shell on the reef

quite a few of them lying around

i mean like a casual stroll on the beach

and coming across as warm water is there

there's flight in the marshall islands

yeah we've been too close to airport

somewhere

it's a little bit windy but we'll see

how she goes

never up never down never

like a female clever

feeling high feeling low at the same

time

i feel so right that i'm

[Music]

i never wrong i always do

never thought

[Music]

stronger than i ever been

and see where the uh the rising sea

levels

just come in above the high tide line

and then just

worn away the bank and

all these palm trees have just fallen

over

this is what's left of the concrete

jetty

it's in about the same state of repair

as the one down at uh

and another looks like a fisherman's hut

here

oh just scared the chickens

[Music]

the bomb crater here and the building

through the trees over there that we

think might have been the old generator

house this large building housed

three generators and it was built on

this island for protection from the

world war ii air raids

it supplied energy to terror and the

airfields through an undersea

cable over three miles long

the area around it is scattered with

bomb craters but the main generator

survived the attacks

so this is something to do with the uh

the generator plant

stuff everywhere

it's a nice little walk on the beach

very nice little explorer of

piggety island just wending our way out

to a little chairs or trumpet

which is most convenient because it's

low tide

[Music]

having explored the island it was time

to do some snorkeling

we set off in dave and found a lovely

coral garden

with an abundance of fish and a very

curious octopus

[Music]

close your eyes

get out of your skin

[Music]

in this world of ticking clocks i hope

i'm getting true

[Music]

so close your eyes

do you feel the same

[Music]
