Comments
Weather eased up Tuesday afternoon and allowed us to recommence work. Managed to complete most of transect 6 South last night before visibility, icebergs and swell prevented further progress. Just reaching the bottom of transect 5. If weather does not get much worse we expect to finish survey box tomorrow afternoon and move on to other associated activities. Regards, Steve and Ruth
