implemented right away, one after the other. However, if sea conditions
worsen, or are difficult to begin with, only the first phase will be
deployed, while the second will be attempted a day or two later'.

planned, hoping to arrive in Caleta Lobos a day earlier on 16 August. If
conditions allow, they may attempt to land on 17 August. If not, they may

| February 2026 | 3Y0K: Bouvet Island (AN-002) 3Y0K ---> All the equipment for the 2026 DXpedition to Bouvet is bound for
Oslo this week and next, LA7GIA posted to Facebook on 14 August. 'The logis-
tics involved in getting all the equipment selected, designed, tested,
packed and shipped to Norway has involved many persons, manufacturers,
helpers and hard work for a long time. We started developing the 3Y0K DXpe-
dition in April 2023, and it has taken us more than 2 years to get to this
stage where soon all the equipment will be loaded into a container located
in Nittedal, just outside Oslo, Norway. This container will not only be
loaded with equipment, but other essentials like tents, provisions, safety
and emergency equipment, evacuation gear, QRO generators and a lot more.
Our goal is to conduct a safe and sound DXpedition where our ability to
adapt to the changing conditions is important. Four team members have expe-
rience from Bouvet Island 2023, and know what to expect - I can guarantee we
will get onshore!' In two weeks, they will pay the $400,000 deposit for the
vessel. By the time they ship the container in mid-September, they will have
spent a total of $1,000,000 on this DXpedition, not to mention the thousands
of hours of hard work involved.

| February 2027 | 3Y0L: Peter I Island (AN-004) BOUVET 2026 & PETER I 2027 ---> 'The 3Y0K Bouvet 2026 team are still working
on the vessel and helicopter contracts and we are in the final stage before
signing the contracts. We are sorting out the last minute deals and are
still looking for some more operators for Bouvet and Peter I teams. Funding
of these two DXpeditions also heavily depends on us getting a full team of
operators onboard that contribute with their participation fee. Should you
wish to join our team, please contact admin[@]3y0.no or Cezar, VE3LYC.
We estimate to stay around the island for three weeks and the total duration
should be around 38 days to Bouvet and a little bit less to Peter I. We do
have all the helicopter and landing permits issued by NPI to go to onshore
Bouvet and Peter I with a full scale operation. Planning these two DXpedi-
tions is very time consuming where the logistics have to be coordinated with
other expeditions and that is why it takes time to sign contracts. Our plans
are to use the same vessel for both DXpeditions. First the vessel and crew
will take us to Bouvet where we will do landing with a helicopter, then our
equipment will later be shipped to South America and stored there before we
return one year later to go to Peter I Island scheduled for departure late
January 2027. Our plans are to go onshore Peter I with two helicopters first
week of February 2027. This way of running the DXpeditions is a huge
advantage for the #7 most wanted DXpedition to Peter I. Island'.
