Bob McKean is in charge of the Marine Section.
He is a very experienced sailor on both Monohulls and Multihulls, his last boat being a 44 ft catamaran, and has sailed the waters around Malaysia for almost 20 years. His position and activities as a well-known Yacht Broker, has enabled him to obtain a lot of contacts and valuable information relating to the Marine Sector.
We cannot think of anyone else who is more suitable to take care of
this section of our site and we are very happy to have him ‘on board’.

(Picture above) After having lived on a big old Sailing Yacht, a 52 ft Cat for 7 years, I finally settled down in Langkawi. So what to do – la? What project could I work on that would be beneficial for the whole Island? Then, I remembered the time when I changed the engines on my boat and tried to find someone who was interested in buying my old engines. I had to go and find the notice boards at the Yacht Club, the Pier Restaurant and Telaga Harbour. I should have gone to Rebak Marina too, but I was too lazy. I thought to myself: "Why this Island doesn not have a single communication tool?". That was when the idea of this website was born. Although we now have the 'Langkawi Link', a well done and essential monthly Newsletter, something like this website here is still necessary in my opinion.
