Khlong Saen Seap - where do they haul out the boats?


Recommended Posts

They have to be hauled out somewhere for maintenance, but I haven't been able to find out where their boatyard is. Anyone know?

I have visited the maintenance boatyard. It is further up the klong from Wat Sribualamong (sp) maybe 2km? Why do you ask?

Why do you ask?

I'm a professional skipper by trade. Fascinated to see the underwater profile of these boats. The stability puzzles me. I suppose it's to do with the massive lump of engine, but with over 300 people all moving to the side of the boat to get off at Pratunam, the thing doesn't roll much..... And with the overcrowding, low freeboard when full to bursting, and presumed relatively flat bottom, going round the corner at Sapan Klongtun at any speed seems interesting.
