The crew of the Open 66 NV postponed a scheduled haul-out in northern Borneo after weather forecasts predicted 40-knot winds. Local boatyard staff confirmed the yard’s blocking configuration lacks the stability to secure a vessel with a 30-meter mast and high freeboard during such conditions. The delay allows the crew to finalize complex duty-free import documentation for a replacement engine and associated components, including exhaust hoses, sea strainers, and fuel filters. The crew emphasizes the importance of classifying imported parts as "ship spares" and "ship in transit" to avoid local taxes, noting that customs officials often misinterpret international yacht transit rules. They opted for air freight over sea freight to mitigate indefinite shipping delays and minimize daily yard storage costs. While waiting for the weather to clear and parts to arrive, the crew is spending the week traveling with family in northern Borneo.
