Comments

Day six at Casey. Cargo went really well yesterday, with the upper deck cleared, the ‘tween deck cleared (truck, snow groomer, snow blower, generator, rock drill, reefers... etcetera), and we’re now into the lower hold. Some RTA (Return To Australia) cargo also coming out to the ship. The weather continues in our favour. Fingers crossed...

The flight from Hobart landed up at Wilkins today, so we’re due some new ship mates this evening.

Regards, Doug, Aaron & Margaret
