Bobby develops a stomach bug while anchored at Koh Lan, Thailand, forcing him to rest aboard the Island Spirit 410 for two days while Chloe leads the island exploration.1:09 The crew departs Koh Lan by 9 a.m. to escape jet skis and tour boats, motoring north to Koh Si Chong at 7.5 knots using twin 57-horsepower Yanmars at 2,000 RPM, or 6.5 knots at 1,700–1,800 RPM for fuel economy.2:48 Koh Si Chong is described as quieter and more industrial than Koh Lan, with bulk carrier loading operations and a town pier where locals direct dinghy placement.3:02 Bobby notes the Island Spirit 410's solar array kept batteries above 83% overnight without shore power.1:37 Chloe covers two days of island touring solo: she visits the Chaofu Kaoyai Shrine, a hilltop temple partially built into a cave requiring covered knees and shoulders, acquires a shawl and a Nirvana shirt to meet the dress code, and describes tuk-tuk and motorbike traffic hazards on the narrow streets.9:09 Dinner both nights comes from a 7-Eleven, which Bobby notes serves full hot meals in Thailand.5:47 The practical note on the Island Spirit 410: solar alone sustains house batteries in tropical conditions without running the engine.
