Rep Power: 4 ![]() | Re: Anambas???? A fleet of abt 17-20 SG private boats (including sail boats) will be having an expedition to Anambas from 28 Apr - 6 May organised by Raffles Marina. Try contacting Raffles Marina as some boats may still have vacancies or require crew though chances is not high. Was invited to go with 1 of the sportfisher but facing difficulties applying leave having started on a job for just over a month. Had requested the sportfisher to take pics of their Catch Report & will post them upon receipt. Anambas is abt 200 nautical miles(360 Km) from Singapore via sea route & somewhere around the mid-point between Aur & Natunas gas fields. A very tempting offer & still pondering whether to proceed to Anambas ![]() For SG anglers who are keen on chartering a SG boat to Anambas, can try locating Ah Heng who owns a 60 footer private fibreglass boat(Nelayana has similar hull) berthed at MCC. However, Ah Heng's boat has modified its fuel tank to accomodate abt 5000L(for range to the Natunas) which makes refuelling a lesser concern. Nelayana has abt 3000L fuel capacity & must refuel before heading home. P.S.- I do not have Ah Heng's contact no. but those keen can drop by MCC pier no. 1 & ask any charter skipper like Edwin, John H or Anthony should Ah Heng be not around. There may be some Tj Pinang charter boats(like Ah Kiang) which may have the range to Anambas. Dive charter boats have the range but boat setup are usually not angler friendly. Based on info provided during the expedition's briefing, there's refuelling facilities for fuel & water at Anambas. If my memory doesn't fail me, MarkR came across a marine research/dive trip report on Anambas some years back & may be able to provide some info |

Hope you are keeping well and enjoying your new job I had some colleagues and friends from NUS who were involved in a biodiversity research expedition to Anambas in 2002. The reports are here: Ex Anambas & The Biodiversity of the South China Sea Have not been there but I gather that Anambas has seen a lot of coral damage in recent years from dynamite and cyanide fishing. Best regards, Mark Last edited by MarkR : 23-04-2007 at 11:44 AM. | |

My Mood: Rep Power: 6 ![]() ![]() | Re: Anambas???? Guys, I understand that MV Seaborne (RSYC) a dive boat is interested in doing fishing charters. Have dived with MV seaborne once and find it to be quite a comfortable boat with nice bunks. They may offer some competitive packages to test out Seven Skies and Malang Biru for fishing potential. Drawbacks- Obviously a bit slow and the stern is not set up for fishing. Captain would also probably have very limited knowledge of fishing spots/grounds. |

Don't see dogtooth tuna, amberjacks and GTs, guess you might be able to find these 3 species but in lesser numbers for sure...also only one species of tuna/mackeral identified. More of a bottom fishing place rather than a jig/pop area I guess. Last edited by MarkR : 23-04-2007 at 12:12 PM. |

Short of a miracle, if a boat gets a batch of contaminated diesel, I don't know if any regular filter systems on most pleasure crafts will help. Our mutual friend's port engine went kaput after the previous owner brought her to Anambas. Hopefully the just completed ultra expensive rebuilt has finally solved the problem I see you are super tempted to go on the coming trip | |

| Administrator | Re: Anambas???? Lod, Personally I have never been there and never see any solid Catch Report from that area ... alot of people are just guessing but I heard alot of bad things about bombing cynades style of fishing have been conducted there. Maybe you could give it a try and provide us a real life account Remember to post pictures too! Regards, Edy
