I delivered a total of 9960 units of Reinforced Alloys from Planet New London to Oceana.
First run (4980 units RA): 01 | 02 | 03
Second run (4980 units RA): 01 | 02 | 03
Base storage readout after RA deliveries: 01
I attempted to deliver water, but was unable to offload more than 200 units due to reduced cargo space from previous deliveries.
Third run (4980 units of H2O): 01
Base storage readout after attempted H2O delivery: 01
Unable to deliver more commodities: 01
Further deliveries are rescheduled for a later time, when the base will have consumed enough RA to permit delivery of other base necessities.
Please advise if base capacity will be increased or shall we devise a schedule of staggered shipments, allowing time for the base to consume each commodity before the next is delivered?

I was able to deliver most of my shipment of Robotic Hardware from Aland Shipyard to Oceana.
However, the base is now out of money.
The base supervisor, Francis "Buss" Biehl, tells me that he, his family of adopted street urchins and the complement of 600 crew who staff the base are unable to conduct commerce without an infusion of cash from Kensington. They also have had to cancel their holiday party.
I know that Buss may have mismanaged things a bit, but I don't think we can afford to let him fail. He does, however, have quite a lot of projects going on at the same time.
When the cash situation is rectified I and my crew will recommence shipments of basic supplies, Robotic Hardware, Hull Segments, Munitions, Quantum Multiplexors, Optronics and Industrial Materials.

I traveled to Roussillon to bring Munitions from the Battleship Pamiers to Oceana.
First I stopped by Birmingham to pick up some MOX for delivery to the Battleship Yamaguchi so as to offset the cost of the supply run.
The sale of MOX to the Kusari Exiles earned over 9 million credits which I then applied to the purchase of Munitions, which cost a little over 15 million.
I then returned to Cortez via the Baffin and Coronado jump holes, however Oceana would not accept my shipment. Base Supervisor Buss Biehl informs me that although he has cargo space available for the Munitions, that space is reserved for some other commodities that are needed for certain projects that he has underway.
So I remain on base, awaiting orders, or until such time as Biehl's other projects are completed.
The trip to Roussillon was better than expected and quite tolerable if one avoids the Brigands. I strongly advise against access to the system via Newcastle, unless flying with strong armor and a heavy escort.

As requested by the management, I just took my ship Gateway|-GSV-Moshulu, a Shetland from the Freeport 4 in Magellan loaded my cargo hold full of Whiskey and delivered it to Planet Honshu, from which I made a profit of 7,730,505 SC and picked up Optronic Array which was delivered to Ocean Shipping Platform.
And this time it was a very safe voyage, both the Magellan -> Honshu and Honshu -> Cortez rides.

Greetings,
A quite interesting incident for my first log,not an usual trade run or pirate meeting,but I can put it like "I robbed a pirate".Well,I was on my way to Aland from Kensington,to procure the "Shishapangma" battletransport,that the IMG offered us a while ago.On the way back to Oceana,I bumped upon a rather strange group of Hessians and Gallic Junkers camping the lanes.We had quite a bit of conversation and I paid the Hessian 1 million as "taxes".Here,the record of our conversation,

Well, am I impressed Mr.Mitchell. And you should be very happy, not only for the profit of 4 Million SC but also your "Employer" as well as the CEO of Gateway Shipping Inc., never praised a newly employed person of Gateway. But you are an exception also pirates are fools I know but I am amused to see pirates got fooled.
Also my expectation on you has hyped to an higher level, hope you will impress me more.By the way.. don't expect any increment in your remuneration.

Ship: Gateway|-GSV-Moshulu
As requested by the management, I just took my ship Gateway|-GSV-Moshulu, a Shetland from the Planet Curacao loaded my cargo hold full of Tea to Planet Honshu so that in return I will bring Optronic Array, which was ordered by our customer. But unfortunately I was diverted to Coronado and got damaged by a pirate and managed to escape to Baffin and then I docked in Freeport 6 in Tau 29.
But after my ship got repaired I thought of proceeding to get the Optronic array, I got a transmission form the Oceana Shipping Platform that the requested Optronic Array by our customer is full and ready. With no other choice I proceed to Planet Honshu to sell the Tea.
For my Surprise the the Commodity trader in the Planet Honshu requested me whether I can take the Optronics to Republican Shipping's base Freiburg Station in Stuttgart and they insisted that it is really urgent since the regular person who take this commodity is gone missing for past few days. And after I delivered the commodity to Republican Shipping base, the commodity trader there was very pleased that the commodity was delivered before the deadline.
After that I thought of returning to our office to take on our regular trade, but again the Freiburg Station's Commodity trader requested than can I help him out, since I delivered the Optronics in a Quicker and Safer manner. I accepted if it is profits me. And it was the Drill Bits to IMG's Freistadt base and I was very pleased to do it, since it was been a long time since I visited the base where I have a quite good number of friends working.
And a gleeful night past in the Freistadt where I shared the foods with IMG workers, my friend who is working there asked me for a favor that his wife is pregnant, he wants to stay with her rather than flying the cargo in space, I accepted it with no other choice. My cargo hold was loaded with Whiskey which was need to be delivered to Planet Baden Baden in the Stuttgart System.
After we came to Luxurious planet we thought of staying there for a while, especially my crew members liked the resort and the beaches with girls in bikini. But we got a transmission from OS&C they need the VIP to be transported to Freeport 5 in Omega 41, at this point of time the crew members and myself got a bit baffled whether he said Freeport 5? but yes, he confirmed it is Freeport 5. I thought to myself that we can't deny the offer since we are Gateway Shipping Inc., and we advertise that our pilots are capable of transporting commodities to the edge worlds. But My crew members were panicked that in Shetland can we travel the edge world, with no escorts? with not much choices left we loaded the 993 VIP (with a deep thought, why does the VIP's need to go to Freeport 5, there isn't anything Special about the system except that Star) to the dangerous and pirate loaded system Omega 41.
With that successful delivery of the VIPs, the bartender said, there are some Passengers who need to go to [color=white] Freeport 9 in Omicron Theta and he said he will pay me extra, after discussing with the crew members we agreed that since it is a system away and we get a lump sum amount for that, after delivering those bunch of passengers, we had only one way out to civilian system that is by Omega 41, so we took Alien Organism to the nearest base who will buy it for a good price, after a quick survey we got to know that Freelancer's owned Heisenberg Research Station in Koeln have a good price for them and the freelancer's there offered me a Bolter Turrent at a cheap rate as complimentary, since not many of them delivery Alien Organism for their research. I liked their hospitality, with a little chat with Freelancer there I got to know that our ally ALG reportedly moving some scientist to their base Wuppertal Refinery I don't know what they are secretly researching in their base.
Also the freelancer told me that they are giving a good pay for the scientist and the scientist are also willing to work their, and I decided to earn profit on moving scientist to Wuppertal Refinery and yes, it was weird that unlike other ALG base, Wuppertal Administrators didn't allow me deep inside some part of the Wuppertal. But decided to move on to our office, also didn't want to move with empty cargo hold, so I loaded MOX and started from there.
When I was nearing IMG's Cardiff Mining Facility in Cambridge the MOX was almost depleting and fortunately when the Cardiff was Inquiring about my purpose, I told them that MOX was not for any particular order, they asked whether I can drop the MOX, which are in high demand for smelting the Beryllium ores which are available there. I dropped the MOX in Cardiff as they asked for and in return loaded some Beryllium in my cargo and delivered it to Planet New London.
And when I transmitted my arrival to Kensington Shipping Platform, they were glad that I arrived, and informed that Oceana Shipping Platform is in need of Reinforced Alloy. And I loaded the Cargo hold and delivered it to our base in Cortez also some Food rations, Water and Oxygen.
And thought that I could go for recreation after this long and restless journey, I was informed to pick up the Raw Hydrocarbon form Omega 3 from a DHC Miner named Erichh.Dorr with crew members groaned about this order, we loaded the base with it. And also I'm forwarding a Recreation holiday for me and my crew members to spend their time with their family.
