During the last 72 hours we continued to experience the high winds, low
clouds, fog, and rough seas that have prevented helicopter operations since
our arrival at Bouvet. No improvement was predicted in the weather forecast
for the next four days. Then, last night an issue developed in one of the
ships engines.
This morning the captain of the vessel declared it unsafe to continue with
our project and aborted the expedition. We are now on our long voyage back
to Punta Arenas.
As you might imagine the team is deeply disappointed, but safe. There is
already talk about rescheduling the DXpedition,
