Logbook of the Úthaf Kvæði
Logbook of the Úthaf Kvæði
October 27, 2024
Left Ólafsvík bound for Terranova. Crew of four: Jón and Eiríkur, quiet Icelanders; Luis, my old mentor; and Skuggi, a black cat, watchful on deck. Sea cold as iron; winds slap our faces like whips.
October 30, 2024
Fog thick as wool near Greenland’s waters. Luis says the sea itself feels angrier these days. Jón keeps to the stove’s heat, while Skuggi curls beside it, barely moving.
November 1, 2024
Near Labrador Sea. Bitter winds bite through our layers. Eiríkur and Luis share stories, their voices small in the vast dark. Skuggi paces the deck, a shadow against endless gray, Terranova still far beyond sight.
November 3, 2024
In the Labrador Sea now. Jón’s laugh rare but warming. Every face worn, yet Skuggi curls at our feet by night. Terranova’s coast draws close. The sea tests, but the Úthaf kvæði endures.
