Cargo operations were delayed until 1215 yesterday due to strong winds.Once underway cargo discharge from the ship continued and was completed around 1800. Backloading of old building materials and waste containers commenced and continued until close of operations last night at 1100. Naval Hydrography program has achieved the majority of its work program and will attempt to complete some minor tasks weather permiiting. Another great effort by the ship and Mawson ceews. Operations this morning got underway at 0900 with passenger tansfer, however cargo operations delayed due to mechanical problems with a barge and wind conditions. Cargo operations have only just got into full swing at the time of writing. Weather permitting hope to have the bulk of RTA cargo loaded late today.
