[Status] We sailed 45 miles today to Sakatia Island, off Nosy Be Island. Tomorrow early we'll motor 3 hours to Hellville, Nosu Be to finally check into Madagascar which will take all day.
As we are approaching tonight's anchorage we see about 5 boats sailing in from the opposite direction. And they are all boats we know from Malaysia! Also, they are almost all US flag, something we have not seen in a long time! Here's the run down:
Slow Flight, Seattle
Jaga II, Alaska
Althea, Morro Bay, CA
Nauti Nauti, Wisconsin
Tiger Lilly, USA but not sure of hailing port.
Icaros, not US, but maybe Canada???
Great to see that we've all made it safely across the Indian Ocean. Each boat has had it's challenges and we look forward to hearing everyone's tall tale! But first, to Hell(ville) and back.
