Comments

A less comfortable night last night, with heavy swells causing a bit of rolling, until we changed course further to the south early this morning. Another hour sleep-in today, with a time change as we head west (not that there was much sleeping involved). We deployed an ARGO float late last night, and retrieved the second CPR this morning. We had an Environmental briefing this morning, which other than meal times, was a nice little get together! On a culinary note, we're looking forward to sticky date pudding this evening...

REGARDS
