The ship is here to take all the Summer workers home, it was decided that the ship was to go to Mawson Station to complete a resupply by air due to the pack ice located around the station. To complete this 7 1/2 height containers of ATK fuel was required for helicopter operations, so some room was needed on board off came a D6 dozer and a few other items.

The boys waiting for the barge, if look closely you can see the snow which was falling at the time.
Barge on approach from the ship.
New dozer being left here until next year.
Securing the barge, this is a bit of a task there was a cable attached to another dozer on one side and chains running back up to a loader to stop the barge from moving back while the dozer was unloaded.
