Easter Edge of the Java Sea
On the chart we are 140 miles north of Bali , or if you prefer, about 75 miles south of the moist southerly tip of Borneo .
Our Course will take us to the north of Pulau Masalembo Kecil (what a great name) and to the south of Pulau Keramian. Just above the “S” of Java Sea
Weather conditions are a little above our forecast but are posing no problems and at the moment it is looking good for the next few days.
We have seen a few more vessels today both commercial shipping and fishing boats and that is only likely to increase as we approach Singapore
The music today is as result of a prompt from a good friend of mine who has often steered me in the direction of good music and who is flowing the voyage on my blog site and is a reminder of when they played the “Endorse It In Dorset” Festival a few years ago.
Their albums and live work are sutffed full of gems like this beauty
You may know them best for this track
