And now - the BIG crossing of the Indian Ocean!

Newsletter 2009/01

Ahoy there
Mischief is on the move again after being held up in Phuket. We fell into the usual trap of 'let's do this while we are here...' and then find that it all takes so much longer than planned. The good thing is that we have now done a good engine service including changing injectors and havng the gearbox/ shaft checked out, so should be all set for the long trip across the Indian Ocean and up the Red Sea.

We check out of marina tomorrow and then cruise round Phuket to Nai Harn Bay waiting for the right winds and teeing up with other cruisers heading west probably mid next week.

ETA Maldives towards end of January, and eta Salaleh, Oman around third week of February.

Wish us well and think positive winds and kind seas....
