Ep 98 - Things that go bump in the night | SAILING MALAYSIA
Come run away with us as we make preparations to leave Malaysia. First we explore Telaga with its stunning harbour and waterfalls getting pretty anxious when a lightning storm strikes close by. Then it’s back to Rebak to get organised for our biggest passage yet. We are startled awake by a crash in the wee hours of the morning when a catamaran ploughs our neighbour in the Marina. Soon enough it’s time to say goodbye to all our yachty friends as we set off for Sri Lanka.
As always, Excelsior! … Onwards and Upwards
