Ivo and Dajana return to Fakarava's north pass anchorage aboard Silkap after contracting ciguatera poisoning from a fish Ivo speared, forcing a weather-driven departure from Toa O. Both suffer classic ciguatera symptoms — itching, tingling, and carbonated sensation when drinking flat water — for two days before a northwest depression south of their position makes the unprotected anchorage at Toa O untenable.Watch The north pass entry is flat calm on arrival, a sharp contrast to a previous mascaret crossing with opposing winds.1:36 Heavy squalls pin them at anchor for a full day, with dozens of seabirds roosting on Silkap's lifelines and fouling the deck.4:44 During the weather layover they resupply at Rotoava, where shelves had been bare for over a month before the cargo ship Marie Stella arrived.8:32 They tour the old coral-and-stone lighthouse three kilometers from the anchorage, then board the French navy vessel Bougainville — a tug with multiple missions based in Polynesia — for a rare public visit alongside school groups.5:38 Before departing, Ivo dives to inspect the anchor chain for coral wrap and cleans the hull and propeller.13:27 Ciguatera risk from spearfishing without local advice is the explicit lesson drawn.
