Comments

Yesterday afternoon we continued on with cargo operations. With three LARCs in rotation we managed to discharge almost 22 tonnes of cargo and backload some Return To Australia (RTA) personal effects. The shipboard contingent of expeditioners onboard shrunk to four last night. This morning technology got the better of us as those using their phone as an alarm clock, which is most of us, awoke an hour late. Our phones had automatically switched to daylight savings time. We are maintaining UTC+11 during resupply to make the most of daylight hours. We had a good morning and were able to finish the discharge of priority and critical cargo. This afternoon we will continue on with the discharge of general cargo meanwhile accepting some priority RTA.
REGARDS: Martin and Mark
