Comments

Back at anchor today. Most of the day was spent monitoring the weather in anticipation that refuelling could commence, but unfortunately conditions remained unsuitable for the entire day. The work the crew did prepositioning cargo in the holds over the days we were away, has ensured there was cargo easily accessible to unload and room in the holds to receive RTA (Return to Australia) cargo straight away. Cargo operations commenced part way through the day, but went well, seeing us continue discharging and backloading with RTA. REGARDS: Sharon, Fred and Jill
