Comments

Great day clearing cargo from upper deck hatch covers, and getting in to the Tween deck cargo too. Completed the heaviest lift of the voyage, with the 22.7 tonne crane touching down gently on the ice and driving in to Station after dinner. Cargo continued this morning, clearing the Tween deck and into the Lower hold. Fuel transfer pressure testing of hose about to commence, hopefully followed by pumping later this afternoon.
Regards, Doug & Misty
