E166 - One Way Entry Permit Saga, Luganville Santo

Arriving in Luganville Santo, we catch a taxi into town and head to the immigration office to apply for a one way entry permit for crew to fly in and join us, something that takes several days to be continued. We repair our autopilot, and discover our anchor is stuck in a wreck under our boat that Chris has to dive and free. We continue to Petersen Bay and celebrate Joanne's birthday at the Turtle Bay Resort.

WHO ARE WE?
We’re Chris and Jo and we have been living on our Seawind 1260 since January 2019. In our first year we bring our yacht down the east coast of Australia and sail it out to New Caledonia. After cruising further north up the east coast of Australia in 2020, we decide to circumnavigate Australia during 2021 and 2022.
We had previously owned fishing and water skiing boats, but after a couple years crewing in South Australia we decided to jump right in and make a sea change.
We are just an ordinary Aussie couple exploring what this great world has to offer and hope that we can inspire others just as we were by watching other YouTube channels to follow our dreams.
