24 HOURS ALONE AT SEA. Ep 20
February 25, 2016 by followtheboat | Language: EN Play Time: 00:23:01 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
With the temporary crew now off the boat Jamie has to prepare for a 90 mile solo sail from Koh Lipe to Ao Chalong. This will take him into the night so he has to consider the pros and cons of either doing a straight run or going up the east side and island hopping (con’t below…)

******************************
The main issue is further heavy weather warnings. Hanging off a mooring and being blasted by strong winds does not fill Jamie with confidence. The obvious solution is to run straight up to Ao Chalong in one go, but this prevents further problems: fishing boats.
The seas get congested at night with local fishing boats so does Jamie risk doing a straight run?

We've been blogging, vlogging and podcasting about living on our boat since 2005. If you love travel, sailing, fishing, diving and photography this might be the channel for you... Each week we post a 15-20 minute snapshot of what we did. It might cover anything from sailing, travelling, meeting people, fishing, cooking, shopping in exotic markets or hanging out on a tropical beach, to boat maintenance (there's a lot of that when you live on a boat) and tackling challenges or bureaucratic conundrums. There's also a fair bit of photography and diving. Even though the world continues to throw spanners at us, we love being perpetual travellers. And we've never regretted making the big leap into this alternative lifestyle for even a nanosecond. If we make you laugh or inspire you, then these videos haven't been a total waste of time. Pop round to the pub and share a drink with us... https://followtheboat.com/pub/ Jamie and Liz xx
