Aurora over Vestfjord (0:43 a.m.) with a bright moon and the light of Landegode Fyr. It was clear enough to see the Lofoten Islands in the distance.
The inset photo was taken at 1.05 a.m. and shows Landegode Island (both photos taken from Hurtigruten ship MS Polarlys)

Im NaBu- Kreuzfahrt-Ranking belegen Havila und Hurtigruten den ersten Platz, was Nachhaltigkeit angeht- allerdings wegen des Einsatzes von LNG noch mit viel Luft nach oben.
Havila nutzt neben LNG die derzeit größten Batteriepakete (6,1MWh), mit denen 4 Stunden lang rein elektrisch gefahren werden kann. Im Hafen werden diese mit Landstrom aufgeladen, während der Fahrt ist neben dem LNG-Antrieb immer eines in Betrieb, während das andere lädt.
HFF!
