Polar Sea is making progress, I made several 1 minute videos with my Nikon CoolPix 5000, they are low resolution but you can see the ship raise and lower as it breaks the ice by moving water to it's forward ballast tanks.

  • That is actually Polar Sea's sister ship Polar Star, Polar Sea's hull number is 11 not 10, good video, too bad they dont go down there any longer

  • I never could keep the right! They both came down for the 2003/2004 season and I have pictures of both of them in the same frame. One of them at the Ice Dock taking on Fuel, and the other out in the Bay breaking ice! See they should have a name someplace besides the back and life raft!
