I had a great experience at Tristan da Cunha, when in passage from Uruguay to Cape Town (February, 2019). True, is’s a hard place to anchor (a buoy would be very welcomed,) but very rewarding. I was sailing solo, already 2,000 miles on my back, and needed some supplies. Bad weather one day (I slept at the lee shore, anchored close to a penguin colony,) and a holiday the other (declared at the last minute after the death of a member of the community,) prevented me from disembarking. A tender service “for all the crew” (just myself..) was offered to me at the impossible price of £150, but at the end (probably due to the delays and the fact that I really, really needed a battery,) they took me for free to shore. Fuses, a battery, clothes, fresh fruit and bacon, eggs, medicines… I’ve got everything I needed and also had the opportunity to take a glance at the settlement before getting back to the boat. Rare, beautiful, unique, extreme… what other adjectives does Tristan da Cunha demonstrate, other than remote?
