Ken LA7GIA (3Y0K Team lead):
We just finished a very successful expedition to Bouvetøya in the South Atlantic Ocean. What an incredible trip! Depsite all the challenges, the team overcome each of them. We made contact with 102.000 persons during our 15 day stay. We encountered harsh conditions, snow, and wind sometimes was so strong we could barely walk outdoor. Bouvetøya is a beautiful island, but is known for its remoteness and unpredictable weather. The team worked well together and we're proud of having made 100k contacts under these conditions. Today everyone is safely back on the vessel and we're bound for Cape Town this weekend. Thanks to everyon who supported us and who was in the pileup!

That moment when you finally log 3YØK… and your shack turns into a recovery room. Who else knows the feeling?

Day 7 at sea:
Today is our arrival day. We officially entered Norwegian territorial waters at 06:35 (UTC+1) and spotted Bouvet Island for the first time around 9 am.
Our ship is currently holding position about one nautical mile northeast of Bouvet Island. According to the weather forecast, there may be a window of good weather just before sunset tomorrow. We will review with the helicopter pilot for the latest weather conditions and decide on the landing time tomorrow in the morning.
Stay tuned.
Day 6 at sea:
There are not many icebergs around Bouvet Island compared with the deeper Antarctic waters, so we were fortunate to spot one this morning.
Last night we were positioned 280 km north of the island. Because of the wind and waves, we have since made our way to the eastern side and plan to approach from there. According to the weather forecast, we may encounter waves of up to 7 meters tonight. Right in the middle of the “Furious Fifties”, living on board does not feel any worse than it did on the first day.
As of 2026-02-27T00:00Z, our ship is located 70 km east of Bouvet Island, at 54°06′S, 4°23′E, moving slowly at less than 5 kt toward our destination. If all goes well, we should be able to see Bouvet Island from the ship early tomorrow morning.
