The Russian constructed ship is located around 1,500 nautical miles south of Hobart, which is actually close to a French base on the edge of the Antarctica Polar region.
A distress signal was sent early on Christmas Day morning however at best a minimum of 2-3 days wait is required for an Ice Breaker Ship to reach the stranded ship, which is situated in a rather remote place.
At present all Crew and Passengers are safe and the Ship is not damaged in any way, however the weather in the area is unpredictable and naturally the Ship's organizers along with all family members of the Crew and Passengers are concerned.
