What this video covers

After a three-day passage from Langkawi, Malaysia, Camille Milligan and Jesse arrive at Sabang, Indonesia aboard their sailboat Stella and work through the country's multi-stage check-in process.▶ 0:30 Sabang operates as a separate customs zone requiring its own entry and exit clearance before a vessel is considered inside Indonesia proper.▶ 1:10 The check-in procedure requires ferrying five separate groups of officials — quarantine and health, immigration, the harbormaster, and customs — one by one by tender from a floating dock to the boat, then back to shore, before going ashore for biometrics at the immigration office.▶ 1:42 Health officials check temperatures, vaccination records, and the medical kit; the harbormaster verifies fuel, water, and stores; customs conducts a full search of cupboards, floorboards, and cabins against the vessel's declaration.▶ 2:47 Jesse climbs the mast to replace the steaming light and inspect the furling halyard, which has a tendency to slip and prevent furling.▶ 11:20 The crew then sails to an unmapped surf break off a remote, uninhabited island — not listed on any surf chart — where Jesse surfs alone while Camille manages the tender in strong current.▶ 15:10 A strict rule against solo spearfishing is explained: sharks, currents, fishing boats, and underwater blackout risk all require one person in the water and one watching.▶ 10:44
