Comments

Strong Southerly winds increased swell and prevented crane ops on board and IRB ops at ship. Ship moving up and down East coast of Macca. Helo ops continue to Field Huts (Bauer Bay, Green Gorge, Hurd Point) and North Head Baiting Program under way. Wind direction should change overnight and allow ops to be completed tomorrow. Regards, Michael and Simon
