IDEO - Interview with Captain of the S.A. Agulhas II.
(also check out current positon of the ship at the end of the video)
.
South Africa's ice breaking vessel, the S.A. Agulhas II, is currently on her way to Antarctica on a 96 day cruise (almost a month longer than usually) - what does the captain say about this?
.
1st Stop is Penguin Bukta. Here the SANAE58 team, cargo and other research personnel will be offloaded and then transported to SANAE IV.
The ship will then depart to the Weddell Sea (after fuel pumping) for the 45 day Weddell Sea Expedition 2019, on search for The Endurance and also if possible scientific exploration.
