Just returned from an amazing southern journey to the Ross Sea, Antarctica. This year had a twist though; we broke the furthest south a vessel has ever navigated on earth.
Rob Suisted did an interview with Radio New Zealand, via satellite from the Ross Sea. The full interview:
Other noteworthy experiences included seeing Ross Seals (the least seen seal on the planet, and the first seen by Rob in 18 trips south), and an abundance of Emperor Penguins on the pack ice this year.
Rob Suisted was assistant expedition leader onboard MV The World, the world’s largest private yacht, working with expedition leader Rob McCallum of EYOS Expeditions (who specialise in creating cutting edge expeditions around the world). You can see a few of Rob’s tweets relating to the voyage here. Or, have a look at Rob Suisted’s extensive Antarctica photo library.
