Ships and Cruisers of Antarctica |
Polar Sea WAGB-11 The Polar Sea was damaged cutting the Ice shipping lane. She pulled into the Ships berthing area for repairs. This is the first year 2 cutters were needed to do the job. |
Divers Ready If you look closely you can see the saftey net around the stern and two divers standing on shore getting ready to go into the 28-29 degree water to repair the propeller. |
Another Shot The boat looked like an ice breaker type hull with a super steel structure above deck for the passengers. We did not see anyone out and about on deck. |
Russian Cruise Line? The Russians offer a sight seeing tour on a boat called Quark Adventures. We captured this shot on a fly by to check out the receeding ice off Ross Island. |
