The purpose of the voyage plan is to outline the objectives of the voyage,
the location, list the scientific and operational crew, and show the timetable
of activities. The summary is a wrap up of the activities and achievements
of the voyage, including any achievements or activities outside of the
planned objectives.
Hard copies of summaries pre-1999 are available from the CMR
library in Hobart
