    First time went through the Fjords was in 1952 on the trawler 'St Benedict' (GY592) on the way home from Bear Island, a passage and sights not easily forgotten, as a navigator you would love it, sometimes it seems as if you were heading for a dead-end and steaming a bit further a whole new vista opened up. That's how I remember it but it was 73 years ago

    A whole new vista opened up - more rock trees and water
