1 Nov: Finally left RLYC today at slack tide 1400.

The windlass was fixed (new commutator and windings), 2 new house batteries and a jury-rigged system or engine water cooling after the sea cock stuck partly closed.

motored the 10nm to anchor in the Fjord on the SW side.  spent 2 nights here, plenty of lightning and rain but little wind in this snug spot. watched monitor lizards and monkeys ashore and kingfishers and sea eagles.

3 nov headed to Penang.
