Flanged 9 whale, and now just blue. In the night at 1 o'clock we got quite right eye on the lights of the "Kosmos". Now we are all 4 factory ships and 30 catchers here, so it is well part competition. In the night all the boats been bunkered quite full from the last fyroljetanken, so now paints the well towards the end.
