Comments

We are currently about 60 miles south-west of Tasmania and making good time in gentle conditions as we finally reach the foothills of the Australian continental shelf. As our odyssey comes to an end, we have a busy schedule including handing in our cold weather clothing and finalising reports not to mention the Augean task of cleaning our cabins.

Best of luck to Voyage 2 and thanks to all at Head Office and on the home front who make these trips possible.

See you tomorrow at 0800.
