Arrived in Malaysia (a few hours ago) after a fun day (genuinely!) traversing the Singapore Strait... As expected, LOTS of big shipping, although most have AIS system, so their speed and direction etc. can be easily seen on laptop chart and we could adjust ours to avoid..Kind of like 'PlayStation with consequences'!... lots to keep an eye on when you add the rubbish in the water, as the last thing we wanted was a rope or plastic round the prop. Still felt like crossing a motorway with a zimmer frame, threading the gaps between tankers in both directions, but was actually nowhere near as bad as feared. Added fun with torrential downpour in river approach lending bugger-all visibility, but all sweet now.. Mili walked and beers with neighbours... Will do offical stuff tomorrow and in the meantime, time to enjoy a curry and a maybe even a little more beer....
