Submitted by Ralph Villiger on Sun, 13/05/2012 - 11:57And here comes the really important analysis: The risk of encountering an iceberg in a stretch of 2 cables over 300nm (I don't expect the iceberg field to be larger than that), depending on latitude and the average amount of icebergs per square. The risk increases further north with the same amount of icebergs per square, because the squares become smaller.

Submitted by Ralph Villiger on Sun, 13/05/2012 - 10:48This is the current iceberg report. If you cross the iceberg field at the right point you face a risk of 5%-10% of coming really close to an iceberg. But this means within one cable (185m), without radar, and without lookout. I don't plan to sleep all along, so I should be able to decrease that risk significantly. On the other hand frequent fog in that area might complicate this a little.
