Solo sailor Pablo Berrus navigates the Indonesian archipelago aboard his sailboat, *Sofía*, while transiting toward the Sunda Strait.Watch Throughout the passage from the islands of Pekakang and Banca to Belitung, the vessel frequently encounters plastic debris, which twice fouls the propeller and requires underwater intervention to clear.26:40 The route involves navigating dense fields of fishing nets, fish farms, and unmarked stakes, often in low-visibility conditions caused by frequent squalls.17:20 During a 55-mile leg to Belitung, the boat faces a collision risk with two tankers; Berrus maneuvers to maintain right-of-way after failing to establish radio contact.26:03 Upon arrival in Belitung, he completes the multi-day official Indonesian entry process, involving quarantine, immigration, customs, and port authority clearances.28:48 The final leg involves a 45-mile crossing of the Sunda Strait between Sumatra and Java, where he times the transit to coincide with favorable tidal currents.50:28 The passage concludes with preparations for an upcoming Indian Ocean crossing.52:36
