Comments

Cargo operations continued yesterday from delayed start at 1100 and concluded at 2200 when strong winds put an end to backloading. At the time of ceasing operations ther are about six barge loads to complete the operation. This morning has delivered strong winds and prevented any cargo movement. At the moment we have winds of 39 gusting to 46 knots and we are awaiting a change before getting underway. The forecast is for strong winds to continue for today and continue tomorrow. We require around 2 hours to finish all backloding including barges. Weather permitting we will undertake the changeover and sail for Hobart later today.
