After our travels we found Sea Topaz in good order on
our return to Puteri Marina. We spent three days getting her ready to sail away
again. It was incredibly hot, so we were glad to get out on the water. We set
off nice and early, but had to turn back again as with full power on we only
moved very slowly. After we were tied up again Duncan went in the water to clean
the prop: after five months in one place lots of little (and not so little)
sea-creatures had made the prop their home. So after two hours we set off again;
this time all was well.
There was not much wind, so we motored (sometimes with
sails up as well) all the way. It took about 48 hours to get to Pangkor Marina.
Many big ships went the same way too.
