Bobby returns to Ocean Marina in Thailand after a weekend cruise aboard his Island Spirit 525 catamaran, then drives to Bangkok for appointments with a hematologist and GI doctor to review blood test and genetic results following blood clots in all three major abdominal veins.0:30 The clots, initially suspected to be pancreatitis or pancreatic cancer, are retreating on blood thinners.6:53 Genetic testing identified a protein S deficiency, which causes excess venous clotting; if the deficiency persists at the one-month follow-up CT scan and blood draw, Bobby will likely remain on blood thinners indefinitely.9:19 His hematologist cleared him to resume normal activity, including exercise.10:20 The weekend cruise had been kept close to the mainland as a precaution.0:09 During the return sail from Koh Krom — an uninhabited island where the boat anchored 20–30 meters from a reef — Bobby covers the Island Spirit 525's solar output (2,800 watts generated, roughly 1,000 watts consumed, nearly 2,000 watts going to batteries), docking procedure backing into a slip at Ocean Marina in 10 knots, and an action camera setup with a remote microphone and ND filter.0:20 He plans to depart Ocean Marina the following day toward Koh Samui.10:46
