Comments

Lost 3 hours to moving 1/2 & 1/4 heights of Davis fuel to get to the Casey reefers this morning. A problem with the ships ballast caused a massive list (lean) to the port side and tripped out the limits on all of the ships cranes rendering them unserviceable for 1 hour until the ship was re-ballasted just after lunch. On the positive side the rock crusher was discharged along with the airfield proof roller this afternoon while all of the loose cargo (concrete bags, aggregate and precast concrete panels for the East & West Wing Redshed Extension in Port Side Lower # 2 has now been sent ashore. Still working on the remainder of the huge Wilkins Accomodation Sled (6 more pieces to go!) and then the all of Hold # 3 will be empty. Will start to backload into port side lower #3 with RTA tomorrow. Cheers, Micky & Deepy
