We started out at 3am with the seas a bit choppy, and enough wind to put a full main sail and head sail for the first time since being in Indonesia, we were pumped. Happy to take the bumpy seas for no motoring. 
This journey was actually longer than our journey from Australia to Saumlaki, so we knew what we were in for. 
About 8 hours in as we were beginning to discuss our plans for the night portion of this adventure when suddenly we hear a whizzing and massive bang. The main sail has come crashing down and thankfully most of which landed in the sail bag. 
So that was the end of our sailing in Indonesia. Back to motoring for about 28 hours. 
At least it happened in daylight and seems to be a fairly easy fix. 
Anchors down and needless to say we both need a good sleep.
