Comments
Refuelling has completed and we are now on the home stretch. All but one small part of the cargo (about 100 tonnes of concrete) will be ashore by the time we finish work today, and backloading RTA cargo has begun in earnest. The 2012 Casey winter crew have all moved out to the ship and are settling in, just awaiting departure. It is still too early to call, but around Tuesday or Wednesday may be on the cards. It all depends on how fast we move the remaining cargo, the weather, and the “A” factor.
Until tomorrow,
Regards Chris, Leanne, and the V2 Team
