Hello All
This morning the sea was like a dam without any wind and a swell that can only be noticed when watched closely. This is good news for us since it will allow for good conditions inside Akta Bay.
More good news is that after talking to Neumayer station it was clear that there is no bay or sea ice inside Akta Bay and it would possibly be completely clear for us to work in. This will allow us to get close to the "Ramp" position where the shelf is rather low and easily worked on.
Tonight at 20:00 we will do our last CTD for the scientific leg, which will amount to 42 CTD stations completed since we started at a latitude of 58.5°S...that is a lot.
Tomorrow the ship will be a hive of activity with the helicopter returning with some of the base personnel and the CAT train arriving at the shelf with tanktainers for us to fill and more cargo to backload.
Have a good day.
