Comments
The seas remain fairly bumpy but most expeditioners have their sea legs and are up and about. A number of albatross have been following the ship most of the day, and the sunny breaks have made for good photo opportunities for those with steady hands. We deployed the Continuous Plankton Recorder at 1030 this morning otherwise it’s been a relatively uneventful day. Regards Tony and John.
