What this video covers
The crew of the Lagoon 450 Parlay Revival prepares for a 1,400-mile passage from the Palawan Islands to Bali by refueling with 600 liters of diesel via pressurized drums. During the return trip, the dinghy’s fuel pump fails, leaking fuel into the engine oil; the crew bypasses the damaged pump to maintain tender operations. After provisioning, the vessel sails 100 miles overnight to the Tubbataha Reefs Natural Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site. While attempting to raft up with a buddy boat near the Jesse Beasley Reef, the crew accidentally catches the tender’s davit line in the propeller, destroying the dinghy’s jammer. At the atoll, the crew adheres to strict marine park regulations, which prohibit fishing and require stowing all fishing gear to avoid severe legal penalties. The crew spends several days diving at sites including Wall Street and Shark Alley before visiting the ranger station to meet the staff who monitor the protected area for 60-day rotations.
