History
 |
The Junk during a cruise in the Burma banks.
Myanmar (Burma) 2004. |
After having cruised and explored the Burma Banks (
Watch the video) in Myanmar (Burma), the owner Pascal decided to move to Ko Samui, in the Gulf of Thailand.
Having safely escaped some big /in/famous post-Christmas 2004 waves in Kao Lak, the Junk made its way southwards, sailing to Singapore, and then heading up north to enter and sail the Gulf of Thailand.
At the moment, the Junk is based in the Gulf of Thailand, at the small pier of the Fishermen's Village of Bophut, north of Samui island .
The Junk is now cruising in the Gulf of Thailand, deserving the area around Koh Samui, and cruising on a regular basis to the beautiful Ang Thong Marine Park, to Koh Phangan & its surroundings, and of course around Samui island.
