Comments
We departed from Hobart at 0800 after a night alongside, whilst the
stores crane on which we are reliant for the bulk of the cargo
discharge was repaired and tested. We are currently steaming steadily towards
Macquarie Island in good weather. An initial planning meeting was held
to plan the remainder of the planning meetings! It will be a busy
couple of days to Macca with refuel, helicopter, cargo and small boat
operations meetings and briefings to all be conducted before our
arrival... Regards, Andy and Graeme
