Pieter Jongerius as 'mooring' master

Mooring block on 'ocean' floor... 1m3 concrete block



First day 170 miles (of the 400), very quick, almost 8knots, but then 2 day with hardly wind.. Arrival after dark without engine (again).. What to do, not allowed to anchor, must take a mooring, because there are coral reefs everywhere here, must be protected.
But I have not been here before, very dark (just arrived 10 minutes after dark........fuck) .
I know 1 person on the island, Pieter Jongerius, I call him, and I'm so close to him I can hear him whistle.. So he gets in water, swims to a mooring, calls load where he is and I sail the boat to him (slowly) and everything ends well...
cheers
