Afloat at night in the jungle | Discover Sabah, Borneo Ep217

First we have one more day and night in the Kinabatangan River, exploring the tributaries and discovering an abandoned meander soon destined to become an oxbow lake. Jungle sailing through dangerous waters with boats hitting logs and running aground. And we head back towards the pirate zone.
00:00 It’s now gonna start getting serious
00:19 Hitting logs, avoiding floating debris
03:24 Dinghy ride through mangroves and hazards
06:00 Oxbow lakes and abandoned meanders
07:35 Exploring an oxbow lake
10:25 Leaving the Kinabatangan River
14:01 Navigating shallow water (and running aground)
17:54 Now we’re back to NIGHT-WATCH AT ANCHOR in pirate waters
