BOUVET 2026 & PETER I 2027
Inviato: 1 novembre 2024, 18:28"The 3Y0K Bouvet 2026 team are still working on the vessel and helicopter contracts and we are in the final stage before signing the contracts. We are sorting out the last minute deals and are still looking for some more operators for Bouvet and Peter I teams. Funding of these two DXpeditions also heavily depends on us getting a full team of operators onboard that contribute with their participation fee. Should you wish to join our team, please contact admin[@]3y0.no or Cezar, VE3LYC.
We estimate to stay around the island for three weeks and the total duration should be around 38 days to Bouvet and a little bit less to Peter I. We do have all the helicopter and landing permits issued by NPI to go to onshore Bouvet and Peter I with a full scale operation. Planning these two DXpeditions is very time consuming where the logistics have to be coordinated with other expeditions and that is why it takes time to sign contracts. Our plans are to use the same vessel for both DXpeditions. First the vessel and crew will take us to Bouvet where we will do landing with a helicopter, then our equipment will later be shipped to South America and stored there before we return one year later to go to Peter I Island scheduled for departure late January 2027. Our plans are to go onshore Peter I with two helicopters first week of February 2027. This way of running the DXpeditions is a huge advantage for the #7 most wanted DXpedition to Peter I. Island".
