The going started to get a bit tough as the ice sheets become thicker and more dense. It had also been snowing which addesd additional friction to the hull resulting having to back up then charge foreward to gain ground. The main engine had a slight leak in the cooling system and with the additional load made it worst which meant shutting down the engine pulling of the head to repair the leak.We where stopped for the best part of 10 hours.
That worked at well as it was time to have a barby on the back of the trawl deck.
Have my Go-Pro camera on my head have tacken a lot of footage to large of a file to be able to post. In the foreground you can see a other vessel. This is pretty rare down in this part of the ocean as the area is so vast with very little traffic. I wonder why?
This is the ship owned by the Russians and taking supplies and a crew of Indians to there base a little futher south of Davis. A nice hot bowl of there curry would go down well right now.
