On our recent Blue Planet SUP surfing team boat trip through the Mentawai Islands in Indonesia, I asked Andrew the Aussie boat captain if he would tow me into the boat wake of the charter boat on my foil board. Whenever I'm on a boat I always look at the wakes and daydream about surfing on them. Andrew was game and after a few attempts and crashes, I finally got a good backside ride on the wake. I think with a little practice, it's possible to foil on a boat wake until your legs give out. This was truly a dream come true for me, how fitting that the Pelagic Surf Charter boats motto is "Live the dream". I used a Blue Planet 5'6 Ulua fish board with a Go Foil Maliko foil. Thank you captain Andrew!
Aloha, Robert Stehlik
