"The Last of the Vikings"

The crew take the dried whale meat down into the hold on the Jan Bjorn captained by Jan Kristiansen. Jan is the end of his career and will not be passing his skills on to anyone else in his family. He mostly hunts whale with the locals from his village of Lodingen and many people help in the holidays. He does not have a permanent crew, but has many regulars who help out. On this trip he was accompanied by Georg Waage, Martin Hansen and his son Marius Hansen who is studying psychology at university in northern Norway.
