Visits of Yachts Amundsen and Vinson of Antarctica, Easter 2025
Report and photos from Kelly Green
Easter 2025 was a busy period on Tristan. On Good Friday, 18th April, a visit by the yacht Amundsen coincided with the arrival of the MFV Edinburgh. While the Edinburgh disembarked passengers offloaded long-awaited supplies, the crew of the Amundsen soon inflated their dinghy and came ashore early that morning. The Tourism Centre was specially opened to receive them, and representatives from both Tourism and Immigration were on hand at the harbour. The visitors enjoyed a spot of shopping, a bit of exploring, and were delighted to take back with them some of our prized Tristan rock lobster and home-grown potatoes.

Saturday brought a slight lull in activity as the weather turned a bit grey and unkind, but by Easter Sunday, the skies began to clear and residents were able to enjoy the holiday in better conditions. Unfortunately, conditions prevented backloading of the Edinburgh until Bank Holiday Monday. She eventually departed in the afternoon. That same morning, we also welcomed back a familiar visitor — the yacht Vincent of Antarctica, which had last visited in 2024. She had arrived and anchored on Sunday afternoon before her crew came ashore at around 9 a.m. Monday 21st April. Like their predecessors, they explored the village and the potato patches, sent postcards to loved ones, and took a few Tristan lobster tails and home-grown potatoes to enjoy during their onward journey. Both yachts are operated by the same company and are almost identical in design. They continued their voyages to Cape Town. |
