I had to go with emulation for this one. Here is my best so far:
24,820--stage 4

I must say Mister VCS's score ist ausgezeichnet!

137,920

Love this game and penguins too. I think I was on stage 24 and was within sight of the base camp.
It's a shame that the CV port didn't get nearly as many features as the MSX one did.

My new high score is 32,820

[atariron82]

Stage 5 is pretty tough with a keyboard. The curvature of the track really adds a challenge as it forces you into a seal or crevass almost the whole time. A joystick is badly needed for the tricky timing. The cart is due in the mail soon, for next time:
32,110

[atariron82]

A little better:
33,800
