Comments
On transect 2, heading north for the first time. Fantastic sailing yesterday through fields of huge tabular bergs in brilliant sunshine. First trawl of the leg in sunset near ice shelf. Ship quiet as people catch up sleep. Should reach top of Transect 2 tomorrow then will head east for Transect 3. REGARDS Steve and Ruth
