Fleet Timeline
During the transit we entered the Southern Hemisphere with a full crew of Pollywogs who required initiation into the realm of Neptunus Rex by his Royal Court. The only problem was finding shellbacks in the crew to perform the initiation. We did find enough for the initiation to proceed. Lombak Strait is an opening between two Indonesian islands that separate the Pacific Ocean from the Indian Ocean. There is a significant water transfer between the two oceans that create a strong current in the strait. We transited at 400 feet and experienced significant turbulence and some difficulty remaining on course and on depth. Just one more unexpected period of excitement.
