About this product

Product Information

Excerpt from The Danish Ingolf-Expedition, Vol. 1 According to the Financial Law of 1894 - 95, a sum of 30,000 Kroner was voted on the budget of the Ministry of Public Instruction for preliminary arrangements for a Danish scientific deep-sea expedition by the cruiser Ingolf for exploration of the Arctic seas around Iceland and Greenland, zoological collections being the principal object of the expedition. The expedition was to be made in two voyages of 4 months each, respectively in 1895 and 1896. On the 12th of April 1894, I received a communication from the Ministry of Public Instruction to undertake the necessary arrangements for the expedition together with professor Lutken, and on the 16th of the same month, I received ather communication from the Ministry of Naval Affairs to inform me that I was appointed captain of the cruiser Ingolf and Leader of the expedition. The Ministry of Naval Affairs placed the cruiser Ingolf at disposal with officers and crew for the above purpose. Further on negotiations were entered into with the Naval Dockyard, and from these resulted that the principal alterations and fittings that had to be performed were as follows: Building of a deck-house aft with 3 cabins, a large one for the zoologists of the expedition, and two smaller ones, one of which for the physicist and the other for the botanist; fitting of a steam-winch with appertaining reel for the steel-wirerope; a reel for the thermometer-line; a trawl-boom with appurtenances, trawl and dredges as well as weights for soundings. The Ministry of Naval Affairs was t in favour of any alterations being made in the accommodation and fittings below deck, r were any alterations in this respect necessary.
