Comments

Very slow progress made yesterday and many hours of lost time resulted from mechanical problems with on of the crane's. Movement of the wind turbine sections has proved to be very difficult and time consuming which further complicated and slowed progress. Operations re-commenced this morning and at time of reporting only two units of wind turbine equipment remain to be unloaded. Estimate RTA backloading will get underway this afternoon and anticipate completion by tomorrow afternoon. Will continue to liaise regarding rendezvous with Aurora Australis. REGARDS Richard and Jenny
