Comments

Weather has really given us a bit of a pounding overnight with 8+ metre swells last night and into the early hours of this morning which has limited sleep (and vessel speed down to 4 knots) and was indicated in the low numbers @ breakfast and lunch today. Not much better this morning either with the swell not dropping much below 8m although the forecast for Thursday is marginally better we're still expecting 6-7m which is still too rough for us to engage the second engine to try and make up the time. This means that unfortunately our ETA for Hobart has now slipped from Friday morning early to being alongside mid Friday afternoon at this stage. Ships clock now UTC+11 (AEST) Cheers, Micky & Deepy
