Back into the boat routine and Steisha from Moscow comes aboard.  We potter around the islands and then head off to Penang, a very different place.  Lots to do there but top choice is going to the top of Penang Hill on the funicular railway and walking around the lovely park.

Back in Langkawi a Russian superyacht arrives complete with helicopter.  It is available for charter at a mere 750,000 Euro a week.  And then Koo, a sleek 141 foot cutter rigged shiny thing arrives.

On Thursday 14^th  I will spend four days heading back to Phuket to have a major job done.  Re-caulking the decks.  Does anyone have any spare money?
