Winter is rapidly approaching in the Arctic and it is time for the crew to begin gearing up for the second phase of the project.
The crew compeltes phase one of the research and heads to Etah for some much needed rest before heading back out into the fray.
Phase two of the Ocean Research Project’s expedition is underway and surveying the icy Arctic waters has begun.
The mapping has begun for the Ocean Research Project team, but weather and wind are posing a significant challenge to data collection.
Icebergs loom in and around Baffin Bay threatening the boat and the Ocean Research Project.
After weeks of work on the boat, Matt Rutherford sets sail once again into the icy waters of the Arctic Circle in Greenland.
Matt Rutherford is back in Greenland and the crew is getting the boat refitted and back in the water for the latest expedition.
Matt Rutherford returns to Greenland for the next step in his Arctic sailing adventure and research.
