AMERICAN TERN - wednesday february 6






This morning I volunteered to line handle for the incoming cargo ship. It was absolutely incredible watching this mother ship crushing through the ice as she drew her way in.

The American Tern set sail from Littleton in New Zealand 20 days prior, battling with 40-50 foot waves and thick brash ice. But they braved the conditions and made it safely in one piece, delivering us our lettuce, ski poles and engine motors.
