3Y0L Peter 1 Island DXpedition 2027
Peter I DXpedition team is proud to announce today the signing of a vessel contract with ICETUGS http://www.icetugs.com that will take us to Peter I Island in February 2027 where we intend to stay 3 weeks around the island. ICETUGS, an Iceland based company, has an excellent track record in providing services for expeditions, cargo and fuel supplies, tugging, as well as rescue and camp setup in the Arctic and Antarctic regions. ICETUGS is the same company that will take Team Bouvet to their destination in 2026.
The team will continue working on securing a helicopter contract that will accommodate two helicopters to make this a safe and reliable operation as required by the Norwegian Polar Institute (NPI). We are also scheduled to sign a contract with a leading Antarctic Expedition company, Spirit of Sydney, by this summer. This Expedition company has successfully organized 80+ expeditions to the Antarctic and will be leading the Peter I Expedition from a permit, safety, emergency and evacuation point of view. Worth noting, Spirit of Sydney has organized several other expeditions in the Antarctic region in collaboration with ICETUGS, which means that both the Expedition company and the Vessel will have had several years of experience working together before we go together to Peter I Island in 2027.
We obtained the Peter I Island landing permit from NPI in April 2024, and with this we have the permit needed to go onshore. Signing a vessel contract with ICETUGS for Peter I Island is an important milestone for us and shows a major commitment from the team to activate the #7 Most Wanted DXCC.
Our team wishes to use this opportunity to thank all the clubs, associations, foundations, as well as individuals who have already provided us with their support. Going to such remote places would not be possible without such generous contributions. Please consider a donation to help us offset some of our costs for the Peter I Island DXpedition by visiting our website at http://www.3y0l.com or directly by PayPal at donate@3y0l.com.
You can follow our plans at http://www.3y0l.com or through our trusted media news The Daily DX, EA1CS DX info and DX-World. You can contact us at admin@3y0.no or through our media officer James KB2FMH.
