SAA II SITREP Voy 004-004

Hello All

The wind has regained a bit of strength and veered to the WNW after quieting down for a while last night. It gave us the opportunity to gain a bit of distance.

We retarded the ships clocks last night by one hour to GMT + 1 and will again on Tuesday night as we make our way to the west and coming in line with Tristan.

We managed a broken HF radio sched with TDC this morning and will try again tomorrow morning. Our anticipated arrival is building some excitement onboard now.

This morning we spent mostly on ship and helicopter personnel training and testing of the required safety equipment in anticipation of the arrival operations.

I hope you had a good start to the week.

All the best.
