Day 6 at sea: There are not many icebergs around Bouvet Island compared with the deeper Antarctic waters, so we were fortunate to spot one this morning. Last night we were positioned 280 km north of the island. Because of the wind and waves, we have since made our way to the eastern side and plan to approach from there. According to the weather forecast, we may encounter waves of up to 7 meters tonight. Right in the middle of the “Furious Fifties”, living on board does not feel any worse than it did on the first day. As of 2026-02-27T00:00Z, our ship is located 70 km east of Bouvet Island, at 54°06′S, 4°23′E, moving slowly at less than 5 kt toward our destination. If all goes well, we should be able to see Bouvet Island from the ship early tomorrow morning.
