3Y0Z: BOUVET 2018 --- > "In consultation with our new transportation partner
Aerovias DAP", the 3Y0Z team reported on 27 June, "we continue to refine our
plans for our Bouvet DXpedition". They expect to depart from King George
Island (South Shetlands) on 13 January 2018, and to reach Bouvet after 9-11
days, depending on weather and sea conditions. Plans are to be at Bouvet for
21 days, and to be QRV for 14-16 days. Then they will return to either King
George Island or Punta Arenas (Chile).
Fund-raising continues. "We are pleased with our progress toward our goal of
740,500 USD. The team has committed 400,000 USD cash as well as paying for
their own transportation, food and hotel expenses. DX Clubs have stepped up
and some have added additional contributions as have many individual DXers.
However, we are still about 200,000 USD short. Please help if you can. We
have a large payment due for the vessel and helicopters in several months".
