The first commercial Chinese ship on the Northern Sea Route
The vessel left the port of Dalian Taicang (Tai Cang) August 15 and September 10 came to the Dutch Rotterdam. Cargo - is 19 thousand tons of metal products 16740. The ship crossed 15 thousand kilometers. Using the SMP has allowed the ship to win two weeks way compared to the traditional route to deliver cargo from China to Europe by sea through the Indian Ocean and the Suez Canal (45 - 48 days). Any opportunity to reduce the stay of cargo in transit is a significant reduction in costs for shipowners, importers and thus consumers. & Quot;
And here is the Busan. The warm sea, green banks. And the very metal products (part of the bridge crane) mounted on the deck of a Hong Kong ship «Yong Sheng». Yes, yes - the ship is not under the Chinese flag and the flag of Hong Kong.
Will be 29 photos.
But the Pacific Ocean meets the ship is not very friendly weather. As if to remind that no more warm Africa, and Icy fog, arctic Arctic. But the word "arctic" our Chinese colleagues associated until only ice in the refrigerator or glass - nothing more.
2.
At the entrance to the waters of the Northern Sea Route they have not met the ice, nor the promised ice pilot nor the icebreaker. Therefore, the tension increases. But at Cape Billings, early in the morning (Moscow time) from the corner comes up the long-awaited nuclear-powered icebreaker, which will not allow the gulf on this unknown path.
For sailors say - on board the Chinese on the NSR were only two master cards Millionka.
3.
Well - of course, the first photos ...
4.
And here it appeared the first ice of the East Siberian Sea. Colleagues were worried that we did not transplant pilots. I tell you a secret-on pictures are not visible swell that accompanied us from the meeting itself until now (although experienced sea view will determine its breakers and spray from coming after us steamer).
And so there was no way to use the ship's boats to transplant people from side to side.
5.
Still, we do not allow such a disgrace, as the input of colleagues, inexperienced in ice navigation in ice. Put them in a drift, they formed themselves. And began to descend the ship's boats.
6.
7.
And now the ice pilot (which is a nuclear-powered icebreakers XO) are sent to the bridge of Chinese Hong Kong ship.

At this point, we can consider the ward close on all sides.
9.
10.
Well, here's work began. 85% of the time we were posting at such a sight. As you can see the distance between the courts is quite different than when we were in clear water.
11.
A Here is the details of ships. when they pass through the fog.
12.
Without fog - it is another matter!
13.
And as a poet says in one of his song Evgeny Grishkovets - "And my mood has improved!". This is the third mate. As later told our pilot - the only one smiling man on the ship.
14.
Do not believe it - it's logbook.
15.
Well, here are some shots of good weather and the ice of the East Siberian Sea.
16.
17.
18.
Laptev Sea crossed without touching the ice massif.
19.
And at the entrance to the Strait of Vilkitsky where no ice or land to be seen even on the radar, met floating somewhere in the South bear with a cub.
20.
21.
But «Yong Sheng» against the background of the northernmost point of mainland Asia and Eurasia - Cape Chelyuskin.
22.
And ice in the Kara Sea.
23.
24.
At the edge of the last 100 mile bridge again bear children.
25.
26.
The denser the ice had to keep the shortest distance. In order to ward could go for us.
27.
I would call it a photo - "We did it!»
It is not difficult to guess where the crew and where the pilot.
Now Chinese colleagues know exactly the difference between the ice in the freezer of the sea ice.
28.
And now it was over. Ahead of clean water in the Kara Sea and beyond - the familiar roads of Europe.
And we are already hard run for the next caravan waiting for us at the island Mona.
But that's another story.
