Episode 448 : The Dangers of Cruising The Malacca Strait Hello Friends, On this episode I push on from Pangkor to complete the 400NM journey up the Malacca Strait. I get proped by a massive rope that seizes my propeller and locks up my rudder, have to dive on the boat in a 1.5 knot current and push on to make a dangerous night arrival into a tight channel at Langkawi.
