SingPoOnTheBoat

  • Marina South Pier Ferry Terminal 61 Marina Coastal Drive Singapore, 018945 Singapore (map)

Hello Writers! We hope the year has been smooth sailing because you've guessed it - Based on SEAPoWriMo's last prompt, we are embarking on SingPoOnTheBoat on a Saturday, the 30th of June! SingPoOnTheBoat is the third in the trilogy of SingPoWriMo events on some kind of public transport, after 2015-6's SingPoOnTheMRT and 2017's SingPoOnTheBus - the poets of SingPoWriMo will spontaneously occupy a vehicle, and happily read poetry to each other and the confused public over the course of its entire ride!

Prepare your songs of suay sirens, ballads of Tekong journeys, speculative recounts of voyaging with Sang Nila Utama or Merlion diss tracks! 

We'll be taking the 11:00 a.m.ferry trip from Marina South Pier en route to St. John's Island and Kusu Island. There is really not very much to do on St John's and Kusu Islands, and this isn't SingPoOnTheIsland (maybe next year), so WE NOT GETTING OFF... we just gonna stay on the boat and read poetry!!!
