The Mystery of the mv Astron continues.

Yesterday afternoon the toll free marine shipping updates had the Astron “diverted to Postville due to high seas” [or was it weather] Diverted from Makkovik one would presume.

Now this morning it is saying the Aston is due into Hopedale at 7 am. Is it back on track per regular schedule?

So what was this about it being held up in Southern Labrador for 3 or 4 days, then having it routed to Makkovik then ports to Nain via Rigolet and Cartwright?

Did the cargo shift and it had to re route for safety and re position the load reasons?

If there was freight already aboard for north coast communities why have it routed back to Cartwright from Makkovik before heading north again?

Inquiring minds want to know [well one does], after all it is a public service paid for by public funds.

Moscow has the mystery of the halo , but we have the mystery of where the f—k’s my freight and why does it take so long to get here and why in hell is it getting worse and why in hell cant the politicians do something about it and do they really give a rats arse?

OK.the answer to the last question is obvious but I thought I would include it anyway.
