Last night was going to be a nice quiet watch in calm seas. A ship appears on the horizon but not AIS, I recognised the profile of her, exactly the same as ours. It turned out to be HMS Protector ship, the Shacks sister ship. She came alongside for photos and exchanging of information on the ice.
After the bridge cleared of people, we began to steam between some of the islands and saw a few minke whales feeding.
This morning, we were breaking ice and the visibility was not great, sea state has been slight.
Noon position; 65° 28’S 066° 10’ W
