Comments

Santa belatedly arrived yesterday, looking a bit thinner than usual, which we put down to his time spent in pre-departure quarantine. Nonetheless, he was able to spread joy and presents to all and sundry after a very nice Christmas lunch.

Multibeam testing got underway before lunch but after a couple of hours, it was decided to stop due to the sea conditions. We then took the decision to commence transit for Davis.

This morning, we are making 10 knots into a south-westerly breeze as we head into the great beyond under grey skies.
