The pile that anchors the drive cable has pulled on and angle and broken the concrete with mesh visible. I have just heard the there is a small self propelled barge/ferry making it's way up the coast that will be here and possibly in action tomorrow, but at this stage it is not going to be for public use, just to get supplies over and recovery teams over to work on this side. This has not been published and is only rumour but I believe this fella would know. With a whirly on the forecast with would be good to hit the shops tomorrow or Wednesday for a bit of dog food and milk but other than that I'm not to worried. Oh and a couple of blocks of Supafry for my deep fry pot, it's getting low and needs a freshen up :) :) Cheers
