The 40-foot sailing yacht Avanti arrived in Kupang, Indonesia, after a 96-hour passage from Darwin, Australia, requiring 62 hours of motoring and 150 liters of diesel.3:09 The crew faced a challenging anchorage characterized by shallow depths, proximity to rocks, and 50-knot gusts on a lee shore.2:44 Clearing customs and immigration proved difficult, as officials delayed paperwork for a local volleyball event, forcing the crew to remain in the anchorage overnight.4:27 The dinghy engine failed during the clearance process due to a dirty carburetor, which the owner repaired by cleaning the unit.5:47 To extend their stay for the Indian Ocean cyclone season, the crew secured a 60-day visa with two potential 60-day extensions.1:09 During the subsequent transit toward Komodo, the crew identified that local fishing boats without AIS use flashing lights to signal their intended course to passing vessels.9:40 The passage between Kupang and Komodo involved significant drifting due to light winds, though favorable currents assisted their progress during the monsoon transition period.11:50
