20180325 P Merambong Lat 01 nDeg 19.444'N Lon 103 Deg 36.842'E We had a bit of a change of plans today and decided to head up and give Puteri harbour a try, we haven't stayed there before and thought we would give it a try. The anchorage I had planed to use at the southern tip of Malaysia seems to be having a huge reclamation going on and there was no way we could anchor there. So we pushed on up here, it was getting late raining, and there was lots of traffic, but we managed to anchor just after dark, in what seems like a safe place, I have an extra light out though, there is a lot of traffic, and lots of lights in the background. Today was pretty ordinary,, motoring most of the way, with a couple of thunderstorms thrown in for good mix. I anchored in 5.1 meters with a tide of 1.7 meters of tide, over Mud, we are well clear of the channel.
