sail for the most uninhabited stretch of water. free elsewhere in this part of the journey is very dangerous if you know. the monkeys captain is accompanied by six tourists. that they missed restriction top islands and for the archipelagos biggest quality of seals isn't it lonely out here where the only one failing. to travel is on board hope to get to the oil looms by the of the noon of the following day but a few hours later the weather turns for the worse. grey clouds in a cold piercing wind portend a storm moving two hundred kilometers a left to reach the shankill islands there's no way to floyd from the weather if

the vessel is cool top in a bad storm anything could happen it could capsize the waves might toss it on to a sandbank if it's close to the shore. road of course this is a dangerous area for her yachtsman are a great risk here horrible for anyone trying to get through this two hundred kilometer stretch will have to cover it in one go the newborn over all of course if you haven't gone too far away from the shore you can turn around and go back. in any case it depends on where the bad weather get shit and it's up to the captain to make a decision. the yacht has a month's supply of fresh water and fuel on board however ever. trip across the sea of a halt is full of danger ships crush it every year in two thousand and four a yacht called disappeared near the shores of the shah thems with three crew members on board. it's always unpredictable here if you're not prepared things

could turn to the worst if you. will for. the next eleven if it's fifty five years old that he is a professional sailing teacher the first visit to the shanta owens when he was very young building a yacht was his hobby now he uses it to take tourists to the shanteau harlem's. deal makes a stopover of chicago named in honor of the famed soviets pilot on the island is russia's only sensor that specializes in capturing white whales travelers decide to wait here until the storm has passed. everybody there if they do it's great that you arrived safe. welcome to. the next say if your captain is an incredibly brave man who if you like a. chink the head of the facility first came to this island with his parents when

he was a young boy after completing his military service he returned here and spent many years working as a fisherman and now he is in charge of a team catching watch whales so i'm in for scientific purposes of the center dolphinariums in russia and approach. they spend most of their time underwater where they can hold their breath for twenty minutes i just go underwater and stay there until you lose track of the focus of the number of males and females we catch depends on the customer we don't take big ones because their capacity for adapting to new environments is not. present there are some twenty white whales in the facility they take about a month to be tamed during that troy they are expected to get accustomed to their trainers and allow people to feed them each instructor trains a small group he feeds the mammals and observes that behavior if

a white whale refuses to eat for a long time it is released back into the sea. which to me is the most difficult process but once the animals undergo be adaptation in a new place training is easy each animal has a distinct character some are bold others are timid each one requires an individual approach but. since the white whales have more yet become accustomed to humans they are very apprehensive of them they don't show up on the surface but eventually one of them agrees to be fed fish from a human hand. but. if you hold it by the gills required for a moment to get it should come up to you it is a mile that will instantly pop up something's coming yeah that's him down there.

and look at that. don't they look great you know much and they still hungry i'm speechless they won the fore. the men become stronger the travelers to start to hurry over him and reach the shores of the show and talk or limbs before the storm hits. them on the charity field around my home base is how the sea of a cause grief everyone. always you know we will keep on the sailing. with the weather it's strong winds whip up waves up to three metres high the york capsize at any moment the sea of a halt is the cool to see in the far east if someone falls over the border they

could will die of exposure. with one hundred kilometers to cross until the shanteau harlan's is most a single day hard from the school as luck would have it the know he has not yet moved far away from their previous stop on the idea. of going to the seafarers spend several days in the twenty fishing village on a small spit of land. the surface of stone where we have been waiting for the storm to subside for almost three days since the thirty meters a second wind almost knocks you off your feet local other fishermen have given a shelter in this an elderly office and buying into nearby vessels or of a situation is better than being on the high seas right now if you want. the fia's storm is a remote and of

to more than two hundred kilometers to the shans harlem's the captain is charles of the coolest fall from the coast any closer would risk the old running aground the crew keeps on track with the help of the g.p.s. navigator and america's compass. just it isn't so bad now you're going to the waves are just one metre high mostly it's time to head for the charlatans. we have resolved to move on because of stable atmospheric pressure in the last twenty four hours we are fine full to the shore for the shelter it has given us now we are in open season for some of them with. the curious part of killer whales is attracted to the small boat this pulse of the sea of a cause is rich with simon in the summer they spawn in the rivers of the shutoff islands providing plenty of food for the killer whales.

for him wow it's the signs of all bloat. it's underneath a look coming up out. killer whales the most colorful is billowing into the gulf in family they come to new groups that have an intricate social structure when chasing so it will prey they can swim as fast as fifty five kilometers an hour they're not afraid of people over they rarely attack from. geragos dairy cows. it's a male soup for. your holiday fuku.

molly shannon toyland greets sailors with its rocky shores the shanta islands were discovered by russian explorers in the middle of the seventeenth century and the language of the indigenous people shantelle means island. the participants in the expedition decide to cut the route short to get to their destination as soon as possible they head towards the opacity straight during high tide the water around the shuttle islands rises by several metres low tide rushes a gigantic mess of water back to the sea of our hearts the currents in the straits between the islands a stronger than anywhere in the world the slow moving yacht runs the risk of being thrown back to shore because of the powerful currents underneath the counter flows creates a swirling for tax as a result the food looks as though it's sitting on boiling water. this is the country there are massive currents here who are storms give rise to bait chaotic

always making it difficult for small vessels to seal through the sailing here is a dangerous side from that their rocks in the middle of a strait if you ignore them you're in for a good deal of trouble for you for the first call. centuries ago the shanteau boylan's were part of the mainland but later the advancing sea separated them from it the archipelago culture poisoned area some two and a whole thousand square kilometers roughly the same size luxemburg anyone wishing to see the many natural wonders will take several months to see the. cultures that so much could be going to be made a lot of people

a very happy look at is the world populated as the world reaches still another population benchmark the debate continues as to whether the planet. the commission in three cretaceous three construction has three major and three. three. three. three blog. projects and three. british. markets. find out what's really happening to the global economy.

there are no holds barred the global financial headlines. are reports. the your treat is the safe way the crew calls a camp by the beach it is below driftwood that washed ashore and the shoreline is too narrow to set up the tents the. slow growth of all these frequent storms drive dreadful in from the shore the triffid ends up here gold is lucrative if there's been a long journey this place is not suitable for a stopover. it's a block to all sorts of things are going fishing. the captain decides to journey on woods even though the sun is setting he wants to get

to a separate bay by the bolshoi river for an overnight stay in the the waves no wind can reach it. detroit changes twice a day around the shuttle. the difference in water level could be as much as eight meters during the night the water receded and the yacht ended up stuck on a sandbank the captain sees the opportunity to check his york for any damage and most of us oh well while the captain most asleep on the job the tide turned to yodel around the left is here with the pieces now that had so much ground we can't possibly get to budge which will have to wait twenty five hours before the next high tide and then we'll continue our journey. with you we have given.

the islands are inhabited by a great many animals but the best pose the biggest threat to humans that's why we expect isha is coming here to make a point of camping out in the open territory that can be easily monitored. twenty five twenty five roger three six hundred eighty. three with the station is the only place on the shelf where people live all year round it's situated in the middle of bolshoi shanteau island. the station's marriage of let me avoid moments is the weather report stated to the mainland morse code is the most reliable way of transmitting information over long distances. all the best to you. the weather conditions on the shuttle islands are quite

challenging summer is short and in the winter the islands are cut off from the rest of the world by severe storms. i think. when far away from civilization your self preservation instantly keeps saying. you have to tread carefully to avoid slipping spreading to rankle. using an eye for an axe you need to be careful you must always remember that this place is far removed from civilization. there is an emergency help won't be coming for quite some time. foodstuffs and fuel is delivered to the weather station twice a year locals take good care of themselves they grow vegetables on a small plots of land and they also bake fred people here can only compare a few items at a time in the preheat oven to three tins of pay for forty minutes. oh

you are part of your captain is always welcome here. he brings food and news from the mainland the meeting is celebrated with a traditional tea party and the guest is treated to a local the likes of bread with clout very dry as sandwiches with red caviar. this delicacy is considered an every day food here on the islands which are rich with salmon. but we're going to tell it devon to you is the island's oldest resident he has many stories about severe storms and unexpected meetings with baz. coming here in one thousand eight hundred he was the weather station chief manager for several years when he quit that job he decided to stay here for good. since then he's been making a living by hunting and fishing he's been to nearly every remote part of the

archipelago. close to the weather station of the remains of a steam engine it was brought here by willis in the early nineteenth century. and they were whalers from north america well this is where large amounts of found where when dirty nearly three to one grinder was used to mincemeat. there were lots of whales but there was no electricity only machines the power saw prevention the meat grinders were all driven by belt like you lay here two belts were used. yes martin yeah. anatoly over juke and sixty two years old but he said for the forest always takes his trusty rifle with him to ward off any bad as. if you carry a rifle with you you won't come across anybody for months with him but the moment

you don't see a bear is bound to appear that's why you need this moment and. the bears on shank's all under a big threat they tend to come out i'm a police food supplies rather than the hunter himself. i mean there in my case was yards from the law i had made sure she couldn't get inside the store house so she sent her cub there the cubs threw out what i could find in the store house and when the two men outside had a big feast. but as a fan don't all of the shuttle islands there are a total of two hundred living here trails nearly always leads to the miles of small rivers where fish school is that an encounter with a bat is most likely sham top as our inquisitive but not aggressive. yeah he's the boss and he's behaving like one worked on me.

but i mean those tapes and mounds as if he were working lunch like ground really with a rebirth it looks like a clumsy animal but he would catch up with you in no time. even if you get out of your wits but you'll still not be as fast as he means what i mean. there's no trace of him anymore. no the bad has retreated to the forest the captain can lay in the year old to allow the travelers to go ashore and cook you know. just my mom will catch some fish leave it for a different pound if they like it right oh boiled could be spider him thank you sweet fish. a small river flows into the sea of a halt the storm is turned into a lake by blocking it with a mass of riverside pebbles a log school of salmon approaches the shore as the fish try to head off the

spawning but it is impossible to catch any during the spawning season salmon stop eating and ignore the bait travellers are really happy to finally land some freshwater fish. worth of red on best seem to be only too willing to get cause i can't help but on the line. their family she she had them when i did. there are dozens of fresh water and salt water fish to be found in the shuttle islands among them a hunchback simon flatfish and trout. in the morning to your like he had threats made destination to cheap oil and. you know what you wanted. we were approaching to teach island it's in the northeastern straits going to look we can't see anything because of the fog or so we have to

rely on navigational aids if we are lucky enough we might see a colony of seals. with the help of the g.p.s. the yacht makes its way through thick fog and drops bank up by the island. to come on the waiting for the signal. to. drop like say come and say when go ahead. all in this home to numerous recurrence here see goals cormorants and make nests. but the most interesting attraction of the island is the vast colony of seals the travellers a lucky to take a picture of them. when the animal sunbathing on the beach they are reluctant to go

on the water during low tide this is the best trying to get close to them. i think this is going on as co when we were still on board we noticed some biting seals we're going see try to get closer and touch them. several species of sea mammal inhabit shantelle islands the ring seal is one of the most common they feed on mullahs and ground fish for a long time seals were the target of hunters but now the practice is banned. the seals do notice the people and most of the russians in the water but they don't head out too far hundreds of inquisitive always pop up all over the place the animals are puzzled rather than scared humans are a very rare sight here. because. seals can be very

aggressive they can even bite that's why the tourists treat these creatures with care. just look at this little tail and flee. cultural seals move slowly but they are excellent swimmers they can dive down to a depth the five hundred metres in search of food. the nikkei has covered almost seven hundred kilometers it's still just a couple one third of that distance again to come full circle but then the return journey always seems easy.
