Mentawai Journal Day 5-6

We arrived at Macaronies on Day 5 with just one other boat in the lineup and our group of surfers were super excited.  Here we are on our way to the resort to check emails.


The waves are still pumping 3-5 ft with some double up ledges outside with big barrels.  Decided to take my new 5’9” Kashiwai out which proved to be a good move.  Here is one of the bomb sets which no one wanted.


Life on the boat is great!  No worries, just go with the flow and enjoy the moment.  This is our living room where we eat, watch movies, play cards, and hang out. Meals have been awesome with Steak, pasta, chicken, shrimp, and all kinds of food on the menu.


Our crew is awesome!  Boy our cook, Anton our waiter, and Alawa our boat man is always on it.


We are fortunate to be able to surf perfect waves and share amazing stories of this ultimate boat trip. 

Waves are still fun at 2-4 ft now so time to wax up and go surfing!  Tomorrow afternoon we will be going to Sikakap village to fill water and tomorrow we move on to a new spot called Roxy rights and/or Thunders before we head to HTs for some barreling rights.  Until then I’m signing off till our next internet connection.
