What a story Erin - each episode revealed so many things that were just so wrong, mostly with your very irresponsible captain.

But I am glad your hapless ship of fools made it safely - and I'm sure you all learned some lessons.

I am so curious, what exactly is a "wind powered engine" that the delusional owners were dreaming of installing? That's a new one in my experience.... Somehow I'm not surprised that the refit failed. 🤣

Please come for a REAL sailing experience on SV Duende. We need to reset your bar for what an ocean passage should be about. 💙🌏

So, so bad. 😒

I will happily take you up on your offer to visit you on SV Duende! 😃

Your cabin (still) awaits my friend. 💙

I was not expecting that your captain would even think of 'sneaking' into the Nicobar Islands. That is insane. You were all so fortunate that they took pity on you. Makes for a great story, after the fact!

So insane! It was lucky the officials were kind, it could have had a much less happy ending. I'm sure the Nicobar Islanders still remember the Ship of Fools. 🤣🤣🤣

"Ship of Fools" is perfect (unfortunately)! 🤭 And, yes, we were incredibly fortunate everyone was so kind to us.

So many things were wrong with the Captain! He put us in danger time & time again. Wholly irresponsible. 😠
