Comments

Everyone in a good mood following a decent night's sleep. Still steering for calmer waters. Clocks went back yesterday, CPR #2 was retrieved at 55 deg 53.65' S, 118 deg 57.39' E (1605h local) and CPR #3 was deployed at 55 deg 55.85' S, 118 deg 58.79' E (1617h local) yesterday. The first iceberg was spotted this morning to everyone's surprise, and we had an emergency muster drill as well. What a busy voyage! Regards, Steve and Ruth
