expedition SHIPs Generally expedition ships have a greater emphasis on maximising time off the vessel or out on deck than on a larger more ‘luxury’ ship. This is helped by most having fewer than 100 guests, hence all guests can go ashore at the same time. On most days an Expedition ship will offer two off ship excursions. The expedition team works closely with the ship’s captain and crew to deliver a high level of service and a flexible approach which means they can react to local circumstances; like a group of feeding whales, if possible they will stop and launch the zodiacs. The cabins are comfortable, the food of a very high standard. An expedition client is someone who wants to maximise their opportunities to get off the ship and learn. Guests onboard are of all ages however you will be physically able to climb some relatively steep stairs and get in and out of a Zodiac. 4

expedition-luxury SHIPs As the name suggests these ships are a hybrid of an Expedition Ship and a Luxury Ship. Some are small ships with close to 100 guests and can offer two landings a day and focus on maximising opportunities for exploring as on an expedition vessel but with the added comfort of having larger, more comfortable cabins and common areas. Those with up to 200 guests generally offer one off ship excursion a day (largely due to time factors associated with the 100 passenger ashore limit) and still have an adventurous soul. Generally cabins are larger or perhaps the ship is newer than an Expedition ship. Meals are a mix of buffet and served courses and the cuisine is of a very high standard.

Icebreaker ships are different All of the other ships in this document have ‘ice-strengthened’ hulls, of slightly varying standards, and broadly speaking they are all capable and safe for the voyages they offer. An icebreaker is heavier, stronger and more powerful, they also have a different bow shape. An ice-strengthened ship cannot make it all the way to the North Pole, the multi- year sea ice is far too thick only an ice-breaker can make it to the top of the world. One of the most powerful ships in the world – the 50 Years Of Victory. The ship has been designed with a double hull and a spoon-shaped bow. The shape of the vessel increases icebreaking capabilities and the hull is coated with polymer paint to reduce friction. She is an upgraded version of the Arktika Class icebreaker fitted with a digital automated control system. The ship has a helipad suitable for a MI-2 or KA-32 helicopter. The ship’s propulsion plant includes two nuclear reactors: one to provide power and the other kept in standby mode. The icebreaking is assisted by the air bubbling system and water ballast located in between the inner and outer hulls. The air bubbling system can deliver 24m³/s of water from jets to 9m under the surface. The vessel can break ice while sailing forward or backward. Construction: The construction of the ship began in October 1989 and was finally completed in the beginning of 1993. 50 YEARS OF VICTORY ICEBREAKER Guests: 128 Staff and Crew: 140 Lifeboats: 4 fully-enclosed Dimensions: Length: 160m Width: 30m Draft: 11m Propulsion: 2 nuclear-powered steam turbines – 75,000 total horsepower Speed: 14.5 knots maximum Built: 1993 Operator: 13 day itinerary – Poseidon Expeditions 14 day itinerary – Quark Expeditions For information on the ship, Deck Plans and Detailed Itineraries please visit www.arctictravelcentre.com.au/50-years-of-victory call 1300 323 194 19
