KV Svalbard, Fram Strait, Spring 2008


Six weeks on a Norwegian Coast Guard icebreaker

From 16 April to 1 June I was on the Norwegian Coast Guard ship KV Svalbard. We sailed northwest to the Fram Strait between Greenland and Svalbard, where we worked for nearly three weeks before a weekend in Longyearbyen, then another three weeks before returning to Tromsø.
