Immediate Report of Victoria University Of Wellington Antarctic Expedition 1987-88: VUWAE 32

Grizzly toboggan (G4)

Grizzly toboggan (G4)

This toboggan was used generally for short distances (bathymetry and route finding) and travelled for much of the time on the third Cantago sledge to keep the distance travelled to a minimum. The machine performed satisfactorily with adjustments required to the chain drive gear box and twin carburettor, which are more difficult to tune than the standard engine.
