0300 UTC Wed. The Bibby Polaris is about to enter Lerwick harbour. Reports indicate this trip was delayed while newly found wreckage (not incl CVFDR) was taken onboard.
Perhaps coincidentally; we shall see later in the morning; an acoustically silent research vessel with an interesting sonar fit and equipped for ROV has just rounded Sumburgh Head after steaming from near the Norwegian coast and having been off Denmark a few days ago. Considering where the search operation is now, it will be a shame if a bit of kit like that just steams on by.
