Comments
Spent yesterday steaming south at 16 knots in ideal conditions. Caught about 250 live krill at 63 20S. After slowing down during the night, reached the shelf break this morning in beautiful calm sunny weather. Encountered krill at about 10:30 in present position close to ice band near shelf break. One haul of live krill on board, currently got net in water for second haul. After filling the tanks (we hope), will continue steaming to Zhong Shan. ETA tomorrow about mid day. Regards Dick and Tim
