Krill boat inspection

July 5, 2011   


This morning I went aboard a krill boat with Robert as he needed a witness during his inspection to issue them a license. This is a view from the bridge of the vessel showing the krill trawl net.


The ship is basically a mini Grytviken processing the krill into oil, powder etc. all aboard the vessel. It has mincers, boilers, centrifuges etc. and an army of engineers to run the machines.


After the inspection as it was such a stunning day we took three hours off work and all except Matt Mech took to the track for a skin and ski. Unfortunately the snow was not good enough for downhill and as we were scraping up our skis with rocks we decided to go back to work.
