SPLASHDOWN!!

We're floating again!!
We hauled out of the water here in Pangkor Marina intending to do 2 weeks of work on Anima. Now, 2 months later, we're finally done (mostly) and today we splashed back into the water. The marina manager, James, expertly drove us along in the haul-out machine, our engine started first go and we slid into an empty berth no problems! It feels so so good to be on the water again. We're both exhausted but still have lots on our to do list before we can head north to clearer waters.
James steers us on the haul-out machine through the yard

  1. Hi guys,

    I came across your blog while doing some research on Pangkor Marina. I am looking for a place to haulout and do some work on the boat (topsides paint and teak reconditioning) and I wonder if you could share your experience of the yard there?

    Also, I'm talking to Joe at 'Joe's Yachts' about giving me a hand. Do you have and 1st/2nd hand experience of Joe's work?

    Any thought will be gratefully received.

    Happy sailing,
