All on board are happy and well. The weather is again perfect; an all but cloudless day with 0-2 knots of wind. Hard cargo ops commenced as planned at 0800 this morning. We're using a single barge for cargo and the PPT's as ice tugs. The three IRB watercraft crews are hard at work deploying the ice lines.
At the time of writing: about 75% of the ice lines have been deployed and work is ongoing, and we are about half-way through unloading the cargo on the hatches.
As to tomorrow and the coming few days, the weather looks good. Refuelling remains on schedule to commence on 27 Dec, weather holding.
Regards
Keith & Nick
