The Polar Ranger as we transfered to the landing craft.
Haven’t been updating because my posts via the sat phone have been bouncing - apparently- they have been going thru anyway.After Savoonga, we went to Nome, then Katsabue. This is another place where our boat can’t land, so we were supposed to hand off the barge to one of the landing craft. The weather was too rough for the landing craft to take the barge, so we spent a week anchoring, then dragging anchor, re-anchoring then driving around in circles.
Finally got the barge
handed off, then waited several days for weather to calm down to get it back. Then back to Nome. Then we stopped at Dillingham.
Our next stop was to be Naknek, but weather again prevented us from coming in. So several more days of going back and forth until today. A break in the weather let us get in. Weather is getting worse, so now we are stuck here. Should be here until Monday or so. Then off to Dutch and then Seattle.
Should get back around Oct. 17th.
