Q And the boat is designed to do, like, to, to go, you know, through, like, ice flows and around the fjords and stuff like that?
A Yeah, it's, it's purpose built for the polar regions, and, uh, that's partially because the person who's building it, who's a friend and colleague of mine, she's an ice captain, and she's the one who came up with the idea because we had both been, you know, working and, and, um, living on these ships, for lack of a better term, up in the Arctic and in the Antarctic for many years, and seeing that ultimately, you know, like many forms of transport, cruise ships or, or expedition ships, they, you They have a carbon footprint, right? We can't get away from that. And so her whole idea was, what if we actually just built something from the ground up that was as carbon neutral as possible? And so there's lots of ways that this ship is engineered for the polar regions to be safe, to be effective, and to just provide a completely different way of experiencing this region.
