Comments
Discharge proceeding in 'hot' glorious conditions! Around 40 per cent of Casey dry cargo and 65 per cent of station bulk fuel is ashore this time. Pumping rate is lower than expected but cause unclear. Lots of ice blew through last night so IRBs and 'Aurora II' had a busy time keeping the fuel line clear. Forecast for next two days is very positive. Currently working towards a departure for Davis on Friday if all continues to go OK. Plenty of sun screen needed today!! Martin and Steve
