Yes, you're quite correct, but another serious problem is the fact
that the island is extremely difficult to land on. The seas are
rough, the shore is rugged, and the weather not very nice for most of
the time. Not a spot where any Paddy, Roy or Harry would like to
live...

You are right Peter, I would not like to live there.
But I would like to join Jan, 3Y9QCA/B on a scientific/radio-amateur
expedition to Bouvetoya.

See this site for a report on an expedition of Shuttle Astronaut Dr Chuck
Brady N4BQW, who was there in 2000/2001.
