SARC 2 is now complete (well almost, they are just completing the Harbour fire exercise) and we sail for SARC 3 tomorrow morning. It is going to be a long day for all onboard but hopefully all will go smoothly.
It always strikes me with FOST the days are always so crammed you never have time to do your normal jobs. It is just lucky that I quite like listening to radio 2 in the small hours as I manage to get a lot of work done between 0500 and 0800 which just about allows me to keep my head above water.
I am a little nervous about the navigation bits tomorrow as I am working off someone else's plans with my own note book. Hopefully after tomorrow Paul will resume with the Navs duties and allow me to focus on the Ops side as there is so much to do to ensure everything runs smoothly over the coming months.
Once we have SARC complete I will just have to make sure we don't loose the momentum as there will not be much time to get the preps finished off for OST. We just need clear guidance as to who will be doing the Navigation.
I suppose in six weeks this will all be over and we can continue with our normal job as the Glen guard ship. Saying that the weather should hopefully be alright by the time we get there.
