Comments
We reached the ice edge yesterday at about 1200 ship's time, having made good speed through broken pack during the morning. We're now making the best of an opportunity to sneak between two low pressure systems, before turning more to the east and heading directly to Fremantle. ETA for Fremantle is 0800 on Wednesday 28th December. REGARDS Doug & Rob
