For my colleagues and me there is an adventure ahead. Today (28.01.2017) at 17:00 NZ time our research cruise SO254 „PoriBacNewZ“ will start from Auckland into the subtropical and subantarctic waters of the Southwest Pacific before we return to Auckland (27.02.2017)! Originally, our departure was scheduled for the 26.1., but two out of the four Diesel engines were out of service due to a damage in the chiller system delaying our departure.
