The Ship Scheduling Office will look for the Alcohol forms and the Medical History forms (again, the latter are voluntary) for the three of you via fax. I confirmed with the SIO Marine Superintendant that you may stay on board Melville the night of April 9/10 in Hobart and again in Melbourne the night of April 17/18. The ship will be shifting from her initial berthing pier to the shipyard very early on the morning of the 18th, so you may wish to depart prior to that move which may take several hours. Staying onboard until that afternoon will be OK too. (FYI, I will be flying out the morning of the 19th.) We will need to make a gravity tie when we get into Melbourne on the 17th and I have requested information on the expected pier location. Do I understand correctly that you or Peter will be bringing gravity base station locations for Melbourne to the ship? I'm planning to meet the ship in Hobart when she gets in on the morning of April 8th and will look forward to seeing you the next morning (9th). Stu ----------------------------------- Stuart M.
