Sailing Malallo ⛵️🏄

No more Dr visits! 🎇 Let's go. ⚓ After 5 days of being anchored in Ao Nang due to Dr appointments were off again. This time Only a short 10nm hop to Krabi. With around 10kts of wind 🌬️ directly up our behind we decided to take it easy and cruise at 3-4kts with only the genoa ⛵ up. A couple of gybes later and we made our way to the marked channel entrance and sailed our way up. It's pretty shallow in here with only 2-4m under us, and visible sand bars on both sides most of the way. We navigated our way up river for a good 20 minutes, dodging the shadow spots and local boats 🛶. The marked anchorage is in a pretty narrow river, and with 3 other yachts in here it's a bit tight. We anchored in 2m deep at low, with high coming up another meter or so. 20m of chain out feels about right. Any more and we'd be on the river bank. It's that close! Now we just have to contend with the mozzies for the night.
