Comments

Another day of sailing North East on light seas.

Expeditioners occupying themselves with books, films, presentations, monitoring of scientific instrumentation, meal times and idle conversations.
For the management team, performance reviews are being drafted as are end of voyage reports. A good book sits on the table, as yet unopened.. waiting for the 'weekend' when laptops may be closed and cups of coffee poured.

This evening's fireside chat will confirm our ETA to Hobart during the day on the 7th..

Regards,

Voyage Management.
