Still at anchor Au Chalong, Phuket.

 

I flew to Bangkok yesterday and got my Myanmar visa without incident, hoping to depart Phuket today.

Just waiting on second alternator repair, which has not worked properly for a at least a year. As the genset is playing up it’s prudent to have two methods (2x alternators) to charge batteries for the passage.

 

Typical Thai experience, Rogerio and Aimee now well acquainted with Suzy Wong, and Luke renewing some old friendships there.

 

Steady breeze blowing over the island and into Au Chalong bay from the SW – good feeling the SW trades are underway on the Indian Ocean which means some great sailing ahead as we head N to Burma....
