The Bouvet Island DXpedition – 3YØZ
Press Release # 11
January 13, 2018
Heavy sea ice east and north of King George Island has made navigation
between King George Island and Bouvet slow and of increased risk. We will,
therefore, depart from Punta Arenas and sail directly to Bouvet. This has
necessitated changes to preparations. That process is underway, and is
moving as fast as possible.
Our sailing time to Bouvet is now estimated at 14 days. We estimate that
our sailing date and QRV date will move back 24 to 36 hours. Our QRT date
will be extended, as necessary, to provide everyone with the best possible
chance of working Bouvet.
