I'm pretty sure my "Nautical Body" is moving Northward. I've been obsessed with Newfoundland for a couple years now, largely because Capt. Bartlett is from there, Brigus. Bartlett owned the first schooner I sailed on, back in 2001 when I was in grad school. The Ernestina (ex-Effie Morrissey) is the state ship of Massachusetts and is in dire straits factually. More on that later.
Watched the Nova special Arctic Passage about Franklin. Dropped off during the second half about Ammunsen, I'll have to try that again later. Just cracked "the Karluk's Last Voyage: An Epic of Death and Survival in the Arctic" by Bob Bartlett.
