Comments

We resumed work last night about 2200 local time, once the wind had eased off a bit. We hope to grab a few more stations before the next system comes in. A problem with part of the CTD system that had occupied us for days now seems to be fixed, much to our relief. REGARDS Steve, Mark and Peter
