Comments

All on board are happy and well albeit a little tired. We continue a great circle route to Hobart; 227.2 NM to go. We've had remarkably calm seas for most of the voyage and only today encountered a swell exceeding 5m. Today we slowed to lower the port keel and ran the trace metal clean seawater system. VL completed 8 EPRs. Other preparations for arrival ongoing. ETB remains 1800 on Sunday 14 January. Estimated 1830 for passenger disembarkation.

Regards

Keith
