With the onset of polar twilight reached Franz Josef Land, and the next day went to the ice kingdom ...
On the icebreaker was MI-2
By the way, do not feed the icebreaker round as it may seem, and with a recess. Usually, if the ship is stuck, the icebreaker is reversing, the stern rests on the nose and pulls the ship from the ice prison:
With the onset of polar twilight approached Franz Josef Land:
Pilothouse. The captain has three assistants, each watch 4 hours. In the watch enters the XO, the acting captain in his absence, navigator and helmsman sailor, who, in fact, turn the steering wheel. Navigator though uses computer navigation, duplicates course on printed maps:
