Two figures watch glacier calve into Arctic waters
Cosa tratta questo video
The crew of the 37-foot Oyster Marine 37 HERITAGE, Florence, navigates the high Arctic waters of Svalbard, reaching 79 degrees 20.83 minutes north.▶ 1:06 They decide to turn south due to increasing ice hazards from glacier calving and the need to return a rented polar bear protection rifle to Longyearbyen before its hire period expires.▶ 2:08 While anchored near a glacier, shifting winds and currents rapidly fill the bay with ice, forcing an immediate departure to protect the fiberglass hull and towed plywood dinghy.▶ 21:27 The crew manages cabin temperatures by using a diesel heater to raise the interior from 8 degrees to 15 degrees Celsius, supplemented by heavy layering of synthetic base layers, fleeces, and Gill OS1 ocean-grade shells.▶ 13:30 They mitigate condensation by venting the galley during cooking and wiping down surfaces.▶ 13:59 The voyage includes a sighting of a polar bear and a visit to the Russian settlement of Barentsburg, which currently functions as a quiet tourism-focused outpost.▶ 29:26
