Comments
With our Hobart port call behind us yesterday, following seas and a good tailwind had our speed hovering around 15kts as the high peaks of Southern Tasmania sank beneath the horizon behind us. We steamed into a confused swell shortly before midnight which had us coming up with creative ways to restrain those items of our cabins that refused to stay in their allotted nooks. The favorable conditions of the previous day continued this morning as we focus on planning for operations at Davis.
