Another six months have pasted and its that time again to bless all things mechanical.
Heavens brood as the fleet is prepared for a jolly good blessing.
Our Captain Sahari and trainee Misnawi also get involved, assisting with the blessings. Though Muslim they respect the Balinese traditions as we do theirs. Shame the rest of the world isn’t always so enlightened.
Gods bless the Sea Rovers Fleet and all who sail in her.
Om Shanti Shanti Santi Om.
Alright Lets eat.
So once again you can feel safe knowing that you’re sailing aboard the totally blessed Sea Rovers Brethren Fleet.
HarHarr!

Recent visit by the Green School out of the landlocked Port of Ubud, (http://www.greenschool.org) turned out to be a good opportunity to put the Nasty Nemo through her paces. And she handled it all with easy and space to spare.
The Green School was up on a field trip to the Biorock Project. Where they learn how to electrify coral to good effect 😉 After a morning of learning and snorkeling the projects they took a break to explore a local reef (Close Encounters) where they got to see first hand what can happen when local businesses work with the village and fishing community to help protect the local marine environment in a sustainable way.
The Next day they head out again this time to visit the Solar Powered Biorock offshore structures. The Biowreck and BioBoomer. The later named in honour of the once long time resident of the of the Turtle Project, run by my old mate Chris Brown just down the beach from us. Another longtime resident and local Eco warrior.
Then its prepare for the beach and Mucky Pirates Bay clean up.
DiveMaster Made and Captain Sahari lend a helping hand.
Despite the lousy visibility everyone heads out with a modicum of enthusiasm on their perilous mission to rid our bay of marauding plastic.
A Junior Eco Wench is Joined by Captain Botac scouring the Bay for hidden enemies amongst the fishing boats.
After a hard morning of snorkeling, diving and rescuing our beloved and now not so Mucky Pirates Bay. The lads and lasses of the Green School sit down to enjoy a well earned Nasi Bungkus.
And thus their day ends with a swift voyage home and memories of noble deeds and plastic vanquished on the shores of Pemuteran.
Garr! Guys n we be hopin’ ta seeing ye all again.

A bigger boat requires a load of offerings to bless her. So before we can take guests out we have to make sure she isn’t cursed. So a jolly good blessing is in order.
Tranquil seas and calm blessings
As the Captain, crew and priestess start the ceremony
MMMmmmm…. When can we eat the offerings?
Tie that to the machine dear theres a good Captain.
Om Shanti Shanti Om.
And there you have it, all blessed for now till the next good day for blessing boats comes round.
The Captain
