04:56 How to avoid fishing nets and lines

One of the biggest headaches for cruisers in SE Asia is the sheer number of fishing boats at work close to land and off-shore, anything from one-man canoes to smoking trawlers. The question is how to avoid fishing nets on a sailboat?

We’ve been sailing in these waters for six years, but we first learned tactics to keep clear of nets and lines back in 2010 when we sailed the Red Sea and Arabian Sea to India.

Before the current situation kicked off, we were sailing from Miri in Sarawak to Labuan in Sabah. Simpler times? Maybe, but Liz was recovering from a back operation and Millie was getting sicker by the day. This is when the stress began for us.
