| Description: | CU Carlsen at mike says: NATURAL SOUND: 'Your Worship, Commander O'Brien, Captain Parker, Mr. Dancy and all those of you who backed me up. I knew you were all behind me and I just cannot find words enough to express my gratitude to all of you. I knew Captain Parker and his crew lived up to the traditions of an old seafaring nation and did all I believe it was possible to save the 'Flying Enterprise'. I deeply regret that I was not in a position to being her back with me, but the odds were too heavy against us. Once again, Your Worship, thanks for the welcome. I wish you sincerely to convey my most sincere thanks to all those who were behind me. Thank you.' CU Captain Dan Parker. CU Captain Kurt Carlsen waves and puts arm around Kenneth Dancy's shoulder.
