Another post I’ve been meaning to get around to is about the
boat Liquid Desire. Last year another Aussie hit the island, Anthony has built
his own state of the art twin hull catamaran and sailed it here to Palau. The
boat is incredible and he’s done a wonderful job in designing and building it. It
doesn’t look particularly big but trust me there is plenty of space.
Amanda and I have been lucky enough to spend two amazing
days on the boat. Late last year we had a big party to celebrate our friend’s
42nd wedding anniversary (and their leaving Palau party). We also
spend a very memorable Christmas day on the boat.
Both days consisted of around 20 of us sailing and/or
cruising around the rock islands with various activities like snorkelling reefs
& shallow wrecks, stand up paddle-boarding, drinking, eating, lazing on the
deck etc.
Anthony’s aim in Palau is to set up Liquid Desire as a
surfing live aboard but is also set up for diving and fishing. If you want a
trip of a lifetime get a small group together and hire Anthony’s boat and go
surfing on the reefs in Palau. You won’t regret it.
Here are some mostly average photos I've taken. Plenty of better ones on the websites though.
