Comments
The fuel transfer to station was complete by 1330 with 995,000 litres of fuel pumped ashore and every tank filled to the maximum capacity.
The winds dropped away and by 1400 were a gentle 4-5 knots, perfect for the 28 ton bulldozer transfer which went without a hitch.
Once it was stowed the bulk of the remaining cargo wast transferred to the ship leaving a few loads to complete before lifting the barge onboard.
Cheers,
Andy and Simon
