25-26 Sept Faeringehavn to Fiskenaesset

NorthaboutLEG 4No Comments26/09/2016

25-26 September abandoned port of FAERINGEHAVN to inhabited village of Fiskenæsset/ AKA Qeqertarsuatsiaat

We took the dingy ashore to Qeqertarsuatsiaat to find a wonderful village of just 280 people with church, school and a hunting culture

We took the opportunity to interview Shaun Weng the skipper of the boat Eagles Quest II, as they were anchored next to us. They also had a relatively ice free experience through the NW passage. At approximately the same time as us. And here he shares his personal refections on what that means from a climate change perspective.
