Last night the second round of our shipboard quiz night was hosted by Harley and Matt with adjudication by Dane. Our thanks to them for making the effort and for all involved it was a good night out.
Today the ship continues its north easterly run on a light swell. Today was a day of briefings" as projects, cargo, communications, refuelling, passenger transfers and watercraft operations were all variously discussed and co-ordinated. This long day was made tolerable by practical outcomes, good company, a few laughs and the knowledge that Macquarie Island is not all that far away.
