Pictures!



Victoria Dockyards. View from the bow of the boat








Stern of the boat where the drilling deck is.







The middle of the boat. The drill deck is to the right (on the stern) and the research quarters and state rooms (bed rooms) are to the left.







Toward the bow of the boat. The orange things are fully enclosed life boats!








The drill !!!










Hallways in the boat - Very clean and homey! I've never seen a cleaner research vessel. The door on the left is the photographer's. He's a very innovative, enthusiastic guy who has a "Geologists Rock" sign above his door. We were friends instantly. :)









The closets, bathroom door and sink on our room. I share with a former labmate named Beth (now in Denmark).







The beds and desk in our room. I have the top bunk.






Friday is the full tour of the boat (including the engine room and the bridge!) Stay tuned for more pictures. :)

  1. These are cool! Looks like they made the place very comfortable for you guys. Unlike those poor fellows on "The Deadliest Catch"... :)

  2. These are very nice pictures. Your bedroom walls are a bit austere, though...I'm wondering how they would look with a little decorating. :-)

    Love you!
