Record‑Breaking Finnish Icebreaker Nordica Departs Kotka for Canadian Arctic Mission

Nordica, a 116‑m Finnish‑built icebreaker with 230‑tonne bollard pull and 15 MW diesel‑electric propulsion, left Kotka on Aug 23 to support the Canadian Coast Guard. The one‑year charter—between Arctia and Qikiqtaaluk Horizon Arctic Services—provides icebreaking, environmental and search‑and‑rescue services across the Arctic, arriving St. John’s on Sept 5 before heading north.
