The 3YØK team departed Cape Town this morning aboard the Danish registered
vessel Argus from Icetugs, beginning the 1,500‑nautical‑mile transit to
Bouvet Island.Argus completed scheduled maintenance and survey work prior
to her arrival in Cape Town, ensuring full readiness for the voyage.
Earlier this week, the expedition helicopter was loaded, inspected, and
secured on deck. Both the vessel and the aircraft have successfully passed
all required inspections.We appreciate the strong commitment demonstrated
by the pilots, mechanic, expedition guides and vessel crew as we move
forward together as one team to make this a successful expedition.The
captain and crew are performing excellently, and the team is enjoying good
meals prepared by the ship’s chef.
Despite encountering rough seas during the first day at sea, preparations
continue onboard as we expect to arrive at Bouvet on February 26th at
approximately 08:00 local time.Further updates regarding our band plans and
DQRM strategy will be shared as we approach the island.We extend our
sincere thanks to all contributors for your continued support!
