- It's the first time something like this has happened,
but it's actually jammed,
so we can't pull down the Code D right now.
(mellow jazz music)
Uh-oh.
- [Man] I don't know what happened.
- [Elayna] This is wicked.
(bird squawks)
(vocalising)
(mellow island music)
You were with us last week on the gorgeous island
of Anguilla, with some dramas on the beach.
We've lost the (mumbles) in the water somewhere,
and we're trying to find it.
Before we rented a little zoom zoom and explored the island.
So we're leaving this morning to Sombrero Island.
And it's called Sombrero Island
because it does look like a sombrero hat.
Yeah, pretty stoked to be leaving this morning,
and the sky is clearing 'cause it rained all night,
so I'm really stoked.
I hope it stays this way.
You look wet, what happened?
- I dropped the fin from the kayak in the water.
- [Elayna] You found it?
- [Man] Yep.
- [Elayna] Cool.
- Stefan dropped one of the fins in the water,
and I heard this like, "Oh!"
And I thought, what happened?
He held up one of the ones that wasn't in the water,
and he's like, "I dropped this in the water."
And I was like, and I looked at him and he was like...
(laughter)
Walked off the (mumbles)
- [Elayna] Great start to the morning.
- Yip yip.
- [Elayna] Awake.
(mellow music)
(laughs)
Hey buddy!
You want a lift to Sombrero?
(laughs)
It was perfect Code D weather
as we set off for Sombrero island.
We were looking at a nice, flat downwind sail
for a little while.
(mellow music)
- [Man] Okay, captain my captain,
what's the current situation?
- So, we're (mumbles) protected at the moment
from Anguilla and a few other little islands.
And we're absolutely hammering with the Code D
right now within a para wind speed of like 13.
But once we get out of the way of these islands,
the para wind speed is gonna pick up
a little bit, but we should be right on this course.
We just can't get a better angle on Sombrero Island,
which is what we want eventually.
So we're just gonna ride this like this
for as long as we can and try and pinch a few degrees
here and there to Sombrero.
At some stage we're just gonna have to fill in
the Code D and...
- [Man] And head straight at our Island.
- [Elayna] And head straight to Sombrero.
We're out in the open now.
It's really not so bad.
Let's see the apparent wind speed, Riley.
between 13 and 16
All right, cool.
Yeah, just as we predicted.
What's going on?
- We're just gonna fill this Code D.
- [Elayna] Pick up?
- Yeah.
- [Elayna] All right.
- [Man] Pull on it more.
(waves splashing)
- It's the first time something like this has happened,
but Riley just said that we winched the Code D up
just a little bit too high
and the rope gets a bit thicker at the top.
And it's actually jammed,
so we can't pull down the Code D right now.
So Riley is rigging something up.
- Elayna, come here as well.
(mumbles)
- [Elayna] Nah, that's jammed.
Yes!
We got it.
You missed the dramatic fall down.
(laughter)
No damage, Riley?
- No, I mean I probably need to go and have a look
at some stage, but I doubt it.
- [Elayna] So is this the thickness of the rope?
- Well no, I don't think it was that now.
I don't know.
I don't know what it was.
- [Elayna] Good job, Shookers.
Thank you for your help.
- No, no.
- [Elayna] Nice job, Rob.
So, what'd you figure out?
- It's been a while.
All it was, we figured out eventually,
was I was using the Code zero line
for the Code D.
So one's doubled and one's singled.
And that's obviously why it got caught at the top.
I'm not sure what it got caught on or why,
but I realised I was using the wrong halyard.
So, no dramas there,
no need to scale the mast,
apart from the fact that I probably should anyway.
- [Elayna] Uh-oh.
- [Man] Uh-oh.
- [Elayna] Uh-oh.
- [Riley] I don't know what happened.
If that was on...
Or that has fallen down and somehow knocked the line.
I think it's fallen off there,
and somehow knocked that up.
I don't know, that doesn't...
- [Elayna] So we have no fresh water now.
- Well, we've got fresh water minus...
Whatever this was.
Actually, Elayna, who's got some washing they need done?
- [Man] I have maybe one shirt.
- [Riley] Yeah.
That's good for the night
because there's all sorts of grubby little bacteria
growing around in here.
- The morning sickness is real.
I've been like, I wake up this morning,
before we'd even left,
and I knew I was gonna be sick.
But I've been pretty lucky.
I've only got morning sickness twice.
So...
Think if I keep talking myself out of it
I'll be okay.
- We're 2.6 nautical miles from Sombrero Island.
The swell is starting to build.
Because of the continental shelf creeping up,
so the waves are building.
We've got an apparent wind speed of 21,
it's been even up to 23.
We've still got full sails up.
Which is pushing it a little bit,
but it's just here.
So I've gone downwind a little bit.
The lull of the apparent wind speed
will push up behind the island,
turn the engines on, and motor back in.
Otherwise we could take the reef,
but I can't really be bothered.
We've snuck up into our little spot
that I found.
And hopefully go for a spearfish pretty quickly.
Elayna, what do you reckon?
She's...
She's about as not keen as I've ever seen her
for anything.
(bouncy island music)
- I feel like such a dork with this on.
(bouncy island music)
♪ The whispers of the trees ♪
♪ The humming of the bees ♪
It's still 18 metres here, and you can see the bottom.
The water must be so clear.
This is so cool.
So we've decided, all along this shelf here,
like it's 20 metres regardless.
So it's a really steep drop.
So we might as well go close to the steps
that lead to the town.
Back over this way.
And we've already seen fish in the water.
So I'm so excited to jump in.

(object clicks)
(whirring)
- [Man] What on earth is going on?
- Riley's convinced me to take the dinghy
all the way out there to drift along the shelf
so he can go spear fishing.
- [Man] Out in basically Atlantic swell.
- So I'm just thinking what we should take,
and I think we should take...
We got a radio so we can radio Shikron,
if the engine won't start or something like that.
I'm also gonna take the (mumbles)
for the worst case scenario,
and maybe some flares.
Should we take some flares?
Or is that a bit overboard?
- [Man] Well, I guess we could.
- Doesn't hurt.
Some sun screen, a hat and bikinis,
so I can swim as well.
Yeah.
- [Man] In order of importance, well done.
- What are you after today (mumbles) wahoo?
- [Man] Wahoo or tuna.
- I think tuna.
- Tuna would be nice.
- [Man] Really?
Wahoo's better.
- Yeah, mix it up.
I don't know, something different.
(man mumbles)
- Get a tuna.
- (mumbles)
Walkie-talkie and a lifeline.
- For navigation.
- For nav.
Alrighty.
- [Man] Alright.
We hope that you won't use it.
- Me too.
(laughter)
- [Man] Peace.
- See you later.
- [Man] See you!
(Riley mumbles)
- Riley said he's seen something.
So I've let go of the buoy,
and he's by himself now.
And if I see him waving,
I'm gonna start up the dinghy and go over
and help him fetch the fish.
False alarm.
Riley said it was a small wahoo, so he didn't shoot it.
But I don't know how I got roped into this.
I'm now chopping up chum.
And throwing it in the water for Riley.
Because we're drifting this way and he's behind me,
so I'll throw the chum out
and hopefully lure in a big one.
The boat stinks.
So, Riley...
So I don't think we said,
but Riley did not get a wahoo.
- [Riley] I saw one.
- He saw one, but it was only...
- [Riley] Little baby one.
- Yeah, it was a little one.
But anyway...
- [Riley] I thought I wouldn't shoot it.
- Okay, Riley, thank you.
- [Riley] I could have, though.
- You could have but you did the right thing.
And we all go back to the boat.
Riley went for a swim by himself.
The GoPro battery died,
but he said, like, the sea life's incredible,
so tomorrow morning we're all gonna go for a swim.
But right now we really wanna go and check out
the ruins up here before it gets dark.
There's no place to leave the dinghy.
It's just a quick wall.
So we're gonna try and throw out the anchor
and hopefully it'll sit off the wall.
But yeah, there's a ladder that we have to climb
to get onto this island.
So this is gonna be interesting.
This is so sick.
- It's (mumbles)
- [Elayna] This is wicked.
(soulful vocalising)
(laughter)
Oh my god.
Here we are.
Sombrero.
Oh my gosh.
Those birds were not expecting a human.
Hello!
♪ I was in love with the big blue ocean ♪
I don't even know where to look right now.
♪ A few of the words were not spoken ♪
Where am I right now?
Never felt this way.
Ever.
I'm getting such a weird feeling being here.
It's so different from anything I've ever felt.
- [Riley] So, Sombrero, like Anguilla,
is one of the British territories.
This island was used for mining guano,
which is the accumulated excrement of seabirds
and bats.
Guano is a highly effective fertiliser
due to its high content of nitrogen, phosphate
and potassium, the nutrients essential
for plant growth.
Sombrero is located on the route between England
and South and Central America.
Because of the high traffic on this route
there were hundreds of ships that run aground
on the nearby Horseshoe Reef.
Many islands across the Caribbean required a lighthouse,
so it wasn't until 1898 that one was constructed.
A lighthouse was once damaged in a hurricane
and replaced, and it was manned until the year 2001,
when they installed an automated tower.
Since then it's just been the lizards,
the mass boobies and the plethora of sea life
under the surface.
(soulful vocalising)
(bird squawks)
- [Elayna] Oh, little baby.
Aren't you just gorgeous?
You can't fly yet.
But don't worry, we'll leave you alone, okay?
You stay there.
It's all right, you stay.
You stay.
This is the way up to the lighthouse,
and the first thing I see is batteries in water.
And I don't trust it.
- [Man] I'm gonna go first.
- [Elayna] All right, sweet.
I'll use you as a guinea pig.
Be careful.
I don't trust the rusty part.
So I'm on the fifth floor of the lighthouse.
And Shikron just came from the level above,
and he said the lighthouse is actually locked off,
so the best view that we have is from this little,
little window here.
And it is so hot in here.
And a bit creepy.
There's like this hum.
I'm not sure what it's from.
But I don't like it, so I'm going down.
- What can I say?
This place is amazing.
Absolutely incredible.
It's like the remains of some ancient Druid civilization
left here just for us to explore.
It really, really is incredible.
I'm just absolutely gobsmacked, blown away.
It's ridiculous.
We probably say that too much,
and it doesn't leave enough room for when places
actually are really amazing,
and this place really is amazing.
Look at this.
I mean that might not be your thing, but...
I like it.
(birds squawking)
- Very large population of birds
and also hermit crabs.
But other than that...
Not even any spiders.
Which I'm surprised.
I'm really happy that these birds don't attack.
They're not aggressive.
Like, if these were magpies, in Australia,
we'd be in a lot of trouble.
Riley just said that he reckons he could live here.
- I could.
- What part would you live in?
And why?
- Nesting grounds, 'cause there's lots of veggies
for dinner.
- Oh yeah, you could live on (mumbles)
Get pretty sick of them,
and you might have to put up a fight with the birds.
- Probably live off wahoo.
- Gotta catch it first.
Oh!
♪ And now all you do is (mumbles) ♪
Made peanut (mumbles) noodles for dinner.
I'm gonna eat on the deck.
Gonna get cold real quick.
The food.
- [Riley] Thanks for dinner.
(speaks foreign language)
- That's okay.
- [Riley] And also, and I mean this,
thanks for coming
miles off shore with me.
(Elayna laughs)
- Yeah, that was a big one.
- [Riley] Whilst a little bit seasick,
and pregnant.
And then, after all of that,
dealing with throwing chum in the water for me.
- You're welcome.
Thank you for taking me.
(laughs)
I was about to say, just like that he's out.
Riley was just asleep.
Knackered?
- Unbelievably.
Exhausted.
- I can't wait to go swimming tomorrow morning!
- You guys need to come for a swim,
over by the island.
- Yeah, I really need to see what's under the surface.
Okay, I'm gonna say good night.
Until tomorrow.
Please like and subscribe if you haven't already,
and next Monday dive with us
before we set the sails once again
for a 500-nautical-mile mission to the Dominican Republic.
(coughs)
- Guano bowls.
Collect the whole set.
