Sailing Fun in FUNAFUTI with DOLPHINS! EP60

Fun in FUNAFUTI - Chillin’ with the DOLPHINS!
We settle into life in Funafuti, Tuvalu. After the rainy weather blows through, we up anchor and set off to explore the southern part of the lagoon. We drop anchor at Funafara Island and it's absolutely beautiful.
We kayak and paddle board and generally chill out, enjoying the peace and quiet of being the only boat in the village.
We even get to swim with a playful pod of spinner dolphins. Life doesn't get much better.

👩‍❤️‍👨About us :
Hello and welcome to our channel! 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!

I was the Commanding Officer of a US Navy warship in 1992 that made first port visit to Tuvalu since the end of WW II. Charts were almost useless because they were last updated in 1949. We launched one of our helicopters to spot and mark coral heads and used 2 specific coconut tress as navigational markers. It was one of the most harrowing navigational details of my career. While beautiful, not much for the crew of a warship to do. I think we exhausted their beer supply first day.

What a beautiful spot, loved the Dolphins, the sunsets with the darker cloud looked very dramatic, the sky seemed to be on fire

Could really do with a week or so at that absolutely beautiful place. Chilling with those dolphins looked wonderful. Once again, a really interesting watch and as always, so brilliantly put together. xxxx
