03:15 >> We were polling so we were limited crew and we were limited gear.
03:20 We were quite lucky to have Benny up in the front there
03:22 and he was doing the job of about three people.
03:25 There were definitely some moments where we thought, oh, what if this animal takes off?
03:28 We're sort of half attached to the boat and, you know, you're trying to cut this line
03:31 and have the line in your other hand and keep some tension on it
03:33 so you can get a good bit of purchase on it.
03:35 But fortunately, Andy put us in a great position to achieve the final cut and it was great.
03:39 >> Knowing that it was probably the last chance to get this animal free,
03:43 no one else is going to see that from here.
03:45 I think it's going to bypass Tasmania and heading towards the ice.
03:48 So to be able to, one, stumble across it, but to actually see that last bit of gear go off it
03:54 was a huge relief and a pretty special day.
