A handful of Hobart shrimp have become the first catch of Antarctic icebreaker RSV Nuyina’s unique ‘wet well’.
The shrimp were delivered alive and in perfect condition from the Derwent River to a prototype collection system installed in the watertight room.
The wet well will be used to catch krill and fragile plankton for research in Antarctica.
