The Greg Mortimer commenced her first season in November 2019. She is a purpose built, polar expedition vessel designed in close consultation with Antarctic expedition specialists and is the first expedition cruise ship designed with the ULSTEIN X-BOW hull. This cutting edge nautical technology allows for gentle travel and motion at sea, improved comfort and safety on-board, reduced vibrations, lower fuel consumption, lower air emissions and virtual anchoring (the ship can float anchor-less while launching the Zodiacs without disturbing delicate sea floor areas). There are four sea-level launching platforms for fast and efficient access to and from Zodiacs.
Up to 132 guests are accommodated in staterooms with en-suite facilities. The ship has custom-built hydraulic platforms offering guests unobstructed views, a dedicated activity platform and an indoor observation lounge with unobstructed panoramic views. The outdoor top deck allows for 360 degree views.
The Greg Mortimer has set a new level in luxury and expedition cruising focusing on multiple landings, flexible itineraries and environmental sensitivity.
