*Press Release from the Intrepid DX Group *

Dear Global DX-Community.

On June 18^th , we announced that we were continuing to seek new 
transportation to Bouvet in support of our Bouvet 2023 project. At the 
same time, we have refunded all donations as there was a high degree of 
uncertainty that we could move forward.

We are pleased to announce that we have found a suitable/affordable 
vessel willing to take us to Bouvet. We are negotiating the terms of 
that charter contract now.

We have submitted a new application to the Norwegian Polar Institute.

We have revised the Leadership of our team as follows:

David Jorgensen-WD5COV Co-Leader, Operations, Antennas.

Kevin Rowett-K6TD Co-Leader, Systems/Networks, Procurement, Logistics

Paul Ewing-N6PSE Co-Leader, Planning, Public Relations, Tents, Logistics.

Together, this leadership team will assemble 12 Operators to make this 
vision a reality.

We are revising our website and soon, we will begin fundraising for this 
renewed effort.

We are extremely grateful for all our past Sponsors and Donors and we 
hope that you can support this renewed effort.

Sincerely,

The Bouvet 2023 Team
