A crocodile spotted by drone — seconds before Matt and Grace jumped in — forces Camille, Jesse, and their group to abandon an anchorage in the Banyaks, a remote island group in Indonesia.23:06 The fleet of three boats had sheltered there to wait out a week of northwesterlies forecast to bring squalls and winds building to 25–26 knots, despite charts showing only 10 knots.1:16 The anchorage sits behind a mangrove system known locally for crocodiles and among the highest malaria rates in the area.1:31 Before the discovery, the group navigated tenders through the mangroves to reach multiple surf breaks, explored fishing communities built on the water, and surfed for an afternoon.10:34 A squall blew a surfboard off Stella into the mangroves during the stay; the crew recovered it undamaged by tender.24:06 With food supplies running low and no provisioning possible in the remote Banyaks, the plan shifts to sailing further down the Indonesian coast to a larger island.26:45 Crocodile presence in mangrove anchorages is not always visible from the water — a drone sweep revealed what swimming and tender exploration had missed entirely.22:46
