"NULIAJUK"

Noticed a visitor in the harbor Wednesday morning.


Took a run down for a look and some photos.

Nuliajuk is brand spanking new, built in Glovertown NL and heading for Iqaluit Nunavut.
Told that it will be doing some "experimental' fishing for several species.

She was not here long, just picking up some supplies, she left about 12'ish.

I told the crew that their arrival must be announcing the start of summer. After the quizzical look I expalined that they were the first boat to 'pass through' and hopefaully it would be a good omen.

Turns it it may be, we got up to 14 official and 16.8 at the house. This morning it is 10 official and 5 at the house. Forecast is for low to mid teen for the rest of the week.

Big crowd down the dock when the Northern Ranger arrived, thought royalty maybe aboard.

No royalty, just tourists, Labradorimuts and lots from Natuashish doing some shopping, I hear the shelves are all but devoid of goods in their town.
