Comments

Another very pleasant day today. All bulk fuel required by the station and around 80 per cent of dry cargo are now on shore. Back loading about to commence. Conditions permitting hope to depart for Davis on Friday as the weather is expected to break on Saturday. Everyone doing a great job! Excellent satpix of outer ice band today that will considerably assist our passage north.

Regards Martin & Steve
