After repairing an engine in Putri Harbour, Malaysia, the crew of a cruising sailboat transits 162 nautical miles to Tioman Island.8:42 The passage involves light winds and adverse currents, requiring an overnight stop at a seamount anchorage.14:11 Upon arrival at Tioman, the crew discovers that most anchorages are marine protected areas requiring the use of mooring balls.15:53 While attempting to secure a mooring at nearby Pulau Tulai, the boat nearly drifts onto a reef due to a single-engine failure and poor positioning; a sudden wind shift allows them to motor clear.36:25 The crew spends several days exploring Tioman’s villages, hiking, and observing local wildlife, including fruit bats.28:36 They eventually prepare for a 100-nautical-mile passage to the Anambas Islands, stocking up on provisions and fuel.40:18 The experience highlights the necessity of checking mooring availability in protected zones and the risks of maneuvering in tight quarters with limited propulsion.
