Comments
Conditions finally eased overnight after several days of rambunctious weather. We ran South east with the wind and swell yesterday afternoon for several hours in the face of winds up to 50kn and big seas, quite spectacular. Another bumpy night saw numerous cabins rearranged. Today bright and sunny, and relatively calm. People are getting out on deck and enjoying the sunshine. Conditions are forecast to be easier for the remainder of our run to Casey. Crossed the convergence this morning with sea temperatures dropping down to 3.2 degrees. All well Regards, Don and Anthony
