Comments
We are finally into the aft lower hold where the bulk cargo is stowed.
We ceased LARC operations after about 15 loads due to the northerly swell which is causing the bow to rise and fall an unacceptable amount.
We are still flying helicopter sling loads ashore.
Regards, Andy, Mick and Karen
