Comments
The watercraft passenger transfer briefing was held today. This explains how to get on and off the ship through the bunker door, what to wear in a small boat and what to do once you get ashore.
The last CPR (continuous plankton recorder) was retrieved shortly before arriving at the pack ice edge.
We are now moving slowly through the first band in heavy fog limiting visibility to a couple of hundred meters.
Cheers
