Pipe Dream Singapore departure

Bill and Donna Moriarty have joined and so we are 5. Singapore is only 80
miles N of the equator and its hot with daily muggy squalls. We are fueled,
provisioned, cleared out and ready to go. From here our course is NE all the
way to Alaska. This will take us from 1 degree N to 62 degrees N---the
farist North I have ever sailed. Singapore was a joy as expected---night
zoo, Raffles hotel, cable car to Sentosa Island. Its a pretty city--clean
and crime free. The majority of the population is chinese and China town was
fun too. All day tomorrow, tue, will be required to get around the bottom of
Singapore which is exciting in itself as this is the 2nd buisiest port in
the world. But by dark tomorrow I hope to be in the South China Sea bound
for Brunei on the coast of Borneo--5 days away
