Comments

Departed Macca in the late afternoon, with many onboard on the deck to watch the island pass from view. Generally a quiet night aboard, as many caught up with sleep after a busy resupply. Today has bought with it considerably rougher conditions and the ship has deviated course a little to compensate for the beam on swell. We are still making good time however. Most onboard travelling well, with only a few Expos a little green around the gills. Other op's normal, all well. regards Pete and Karin
