    As a recreational traveller, I want the captain to explain how his icebreaker performs in stormy weather. As I have experienced the Drake Passage on an expedition ship ( Silversea Explorer) with my sea legs fully operational, how will his vessel perform in 10 metre waves in the open waters of the North Atlantic or the Drake passage. His assurance will determine my future bookings ex Melbourne, Australia, Southern Hemisphere.

    The other day, a polar bear gave me a call. He sounded quite frustrated and said, “You won’t believe this, but a big ship sliced right through my daily work route on the ice!” Apparently, he had been trying to make his way across for five days, but the ice still too thin to hold it together, and kept breaking apart. It seems even polar bears aren’t immune to the troubles of modern tourism! He sighed and mentioned that now he’d have to start looking for a detour or other job. “It’s hard enough finding food, and now this! Can’t they see the ice is our highway?”

      So much easier in metric. The French along with most of the world, bar 3 use metric, so it should be presented in Metric. Metric is S.I. Units, which stands for System International, which is French. It was agreed upon years ago for the purpose of trade across Europe and dates back about 200 years. Even the US is technically Metric as they were given 2 of the standardised Kilo masses.

    As advanced as it is it seems to be a fair weather ship. But it seems to be a ship 50 years too late. A maximum icebreaker in a world of thinning ice. 30 to 40 years from now it will be obsolete. I did like the engineering of the infrastructure on board. A lot of fail safes. It clearly wasn't built by Americans. Who slap things together without a second thought, unless the second thought is how to save money.
