ChanceSchmerr Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 Hey everyone! My deployment continues - a lovely short stay in Singapore. My poor timing meant I missed meeting Jimmy Ng, but I shall try again next time. Still, I enjoyed some amazing food, great whisky at some fine whisky clubs, and a great Bolivar Colosales RE Alemania at Jimmy's. Also, a great dinner at Brasserie Gavroche on a tip from a good friend - French food to die for, and a true gentleman running the show who likes his cigars! I'll get some pictures posted up when I can. In the meantime, we have just crossed the Equator (a Shellback am I!) and we're coming up soon to Seychelles! Anyone been before, any good recommendations? My time is very short, I only have one evening as I'm on the Duty watch the second day and then we sail on. I'd like to make that one afternoon/evening count! Cheers all! 2
SokaKiel Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 If you only have the late afternoon, evening I’d recommend ‘Del Place’ restaurant on the opposite side of the island, about 25mins. drive from the main harbour. Mahe, the main Ausland, has some 60 beaches but you’ll barely have time to see them depending on when you finish duty. We’ve just spend all winter in the Marina in Mahe, I’ll send you a DM with more information. I’ll be back on the island Wednesday, maybe we can catch up for a drink! Cheers, Leif 1

Cheers, Leif Leif, I'll be there Thursday! Let me know if you're still there! I don't think I will have a car just for the afternoon so I'm sure I'll just be around Victoria on Mahe. 1

With a tanker along for the ride, we didn't need the fuel or supplies, so we skipped over it. Our loss I guess..... Thanks anyway for the tip, Derrek! I hope you're keeping well, mate! 1
