The refurbishment of deck 5 aboard m/v Ortelius-2014

The refurbishment of deck 5 aboard m/v Ortelius-2014


In 2013 Oceanwide Expeditions had the idea to further upgrade the Polar expedition vessel 'Ortelius'. 
The idea became reality and the goal was to finish all activities during the annual docking in spring 2014.
The plan: a complete deck refurbishment of deck 5.
The target date: 21st of May, 2014.
As preparation a demolition team boarded the vessel to use the time of the crossing from Ushuaia, Argentina to the shipyard in the Netherlands, for tearing down the old deck....
This is what happened upon arrival, from 22 April at the shipyard in the Netherlands...
