view from Cape Geddes
the 'beach'
penguins
penguins and sealsThis morning was spent waiting for daylight to make the final approach into Cape Geddes. Myself and the chief mate took one of the RIBs to the beach to collect the two scientists. The trip was approx a mile because this whole area is unchartered, with no idications of depths or rocks so we had to be cautious with the Shack and be extra vigilant with the RIB. We landed amongst thousands of penguins, both in and out of the water.
We are taking the scientists to Powell island so they can do a quick survey of the penguin population there, then its on to Signy this evening.
