Comments
The Aurora’s two CTD winches were tested to 3000M water depth today, the first test since they were re-spooled with new cable. The starboard trawl winch was also tested. The team continued working hard today on shipboard systems in preparation for the season ahead. Tomorrow we are looking to conduct some shallow CTD dips and test the RMT and the port side trawl winch on our way back to Hobart. We were lucky enough to have our IT team record today’s AFL Grand Final so we are looking forward to watching the game after dinner.
REGARDS: Phil & Rick.
