What this video covers

The crew of Nandji - Frothlyfe prepares for an Indian Ocean crossing by performing maintenance and provisioning in Langkawi, Malaysia.1:28 To improve electrical system safety and cooling, the owner installs a 12-volt fan inside the cupboard housing the MultiPlus inverter-charger and upgrades the DC output cables to handle higher current.12:01 The crew also replaces the teak deck caulking and cleans the hull to improve sailing performance, noting that Chogoku antifouling paint provides effective protection in tropical waters.17:36 Because Langkawi is a tax-free port, the crew purchases boat supplies, including antifouling, varnish, and a hand-held palm sander, to avoid the 30% tariffs common in Thailand and Indonesia.6:26 While in port, the crew tests a toddler hiking backpack at the Temurum and Talaga Tujoo waterfalls to prepare for future excursions.10:41 The crew uses the Babbel app to study French in anticipation of visiting Reunion Island.3:18
