... a ex-Soviet spy boat, piloted by an ex-Soviet attack submarine captain, drives old Europeans and Americans around Antarctica.
True story. Our boat was built as a Polar ¨Research¨ (e.g. spy) vessel. Our Captain patrolled the Atlantic for U.S. nuclear subs.
Then, the Soviet Union fell apart.
Then, an entrepreneur figured out Antarctic tourism was booming while Russia´s military was desperate for money. Hello, Soviet crew, Soviet boat, and Western social-security money.
