Comments

Filled krill tanks yesterday. Have been making good speed since then homewards. Deployed met buoy this morning at 62S 88E as requested. Science programmes now totally complete and all we have to do is get home as quickly as we can. Will advise ETA on Monday when estimate should be pretty accurate. Regards Dick and Tim
