The Knights pickup their gears again on 27 Nov again to conquer the famous Horsburg Light House (South China Sea)...
It has been raining occasionally on the week of departure. String of worries were hanging in the air which might dampen their mood or performance. But luckily, neither is there any strong wind nor choppy water during the trip. A challenging trip which we will use up to our heaviest weight. Catch wasn't good, so is the place or our luck ?
Location Introduction
The Horsburgh Lighthouse (Chinese: 霍士堡灯塔; Malay: Rumah Api Horsburgh) is a lighthouse which marks the eastern entrance to the Straits of Singapore. It is situated on Pedra Branca island. Singapore's earliest lighthouse by date of completion, it is located approximately 54 kilometres to the east of Singapore and 14 km from the Malaysian state of Johor.
