Comments

Slowly steaming along the western side of MI seeking a lee from the Easterly Gale. Unable to conduct ship to shore operations of any form due to 40+ knot winds. Stowed 20 cage pallets from the helo hanger into the tween decks whilst sheltering in off Aurora Pt this morning. Will consider pax transfer from Station to ship if weather condition improve in the PM
Cheers Shane and Andrew :)
