ANOTHER LONG DAY

Anchored, Selat Lamut 02° 54.613N 101° 18.830E

We had a very quiet night at the "Roadstead" anchorage and were up bright and early, well it was still dark so I guess just early and headed on further south. As the norm here it was a motor the entire way. In the last edition I said we usually traveled between 5 and 6 kts. ,here that's not totally correct as current plays has a huge impact on the passages. An example today was from 4.3 to 6.6 kts. never changing the throttle. In our past transits of the Malacca Straits it has always been the same. For you or against you!

We'll continue along tomorrow, weather permitting, with our next destination in the Port Dickson area.
