Comments
It has been a gentle introduction to life back at sea, with only a low westerly swell that hasn't caused anybody too many problems. There is not a white cap in sight and we're hoping it stays that way! We conducted a number of RMTs yesterday at a range of distances north of the ice edge, as well as a FRRF at noon today. We are making excellent progress towards Hobart under the current conditions. Regards, Tony, Dave and Petra.
