Squib sails Danube under gray sky, leaving Veliko Gradište

Ce que couvre cette vidéo

Sailing Squib's pocket catamaran Squib completes the Serbian exit-clearance at Veliko Gradište and re-enters the EU at Moldova Veche, Romania, on the Danube. The Serbian checkout took roughly two and a half hours including a walk to the border police office, a wait aboard for an inspection team, and a €20 mooring fee paid to a man from Yugo Agency who arrived by moped — a receipt was demanded and obtained.18:05 The final Serbian official was deliberately unhelpful, ignoring Sabina for roughly 15 minutes before stamping the passports.7:36 Crew were explicitly warned that after clearing out they may not anchor on the Serbian side of the Danube at all.6:29 At Moldova Veche the Romanian border police building had no signage; the crew left the boat to find the office on foot, a police car intercepted them 20 meters from the building and drove them back, and two officers processed them efficiently.12:33 Squib moored at a large-ship passenger pontoon not built for a small catamaran, relying on fenders against bare steel barriers.19:37 Underway, AIS was working again after Sabina fixed it; boat speed through water was 9.5 km/h with a 10.5 km/h speed over ground; Danube depth ran 16 meters.10:20 The crew planned to anchor on the Romanian side before dark ahead of tackling the Iron Gate the following day.9:34 EU border crossings are dramatically simpler than non-EU ones on the Danube.8:30
