@PilotHarbour Good modification of trapdoor but what about the retrieving line? @palmers_arie

A rather chilly night with no wind inbound on the #Thames despite the uncivilised time it is still a kind of a magical experience #pilotslife #shipping Berthing assisted by #Svitzer #Tugs

@hmsprotector Welcome on board Captain. Fair winds to You and the crew

[IcePilotUK 🇮🇹 @IcePilotUK]

A truly amazing discovery, well done to the Crew and all involved for what It was initially thought that would be an impossible mission. #RIPEndurance

We are delighted to learn that the #Endurance22 expedition has succeeded in their search for Sir Ernest #Shackleton's ship #Endurance. The ship has lain 3000 metres below the surface of the Weddell Sea since 1915!
