Icebreaker Sisu

A clear far northern sky with the moon lighting the way as the icebreaker Sisu cracks through the ice in the still of the night. How wonderful this looks. The illustration is by Petri Kantoniemi who draws the Icebreaker Snow series of children's books and there is also an animation series of Icebreaker Snow and his friend Twinkle the pilot boat.

In real life the Sisu sounds just the place to be on ice-breaking duties in the Baltic Sea with its library, gym, two saunas and a swimming pool.  Designed for 54 crew today it is manned by 21 so lots of cabin space to hitch a ride.

Love a Marine Traffic site?  I do. Here is where Sisu is at the moment.
