Ocean Victory
A Thoroughly Modern Ship, Built for the Polar Regions
The sister ship of Ocean Albatros, Ocean Victory boasts the same strikingly unconventional profile as its sibling. It’s a look that reflects decades of Polar learning and design refinement, resulting in a vessel ideally suited for the challenges and opportunities of this unique part of the world. From its uber-stable X-Bow to its heated mudroom and four exterior doors that will get you out and exploring quickly and safely, this is the ship Antarctica – and every would-be explorer – have been waiting for.
- Next-generation expedition ship with A1 ice rating
- Patented X-Bow design delivers a smoother ride
- Two Jacuzzis offer panoramic views
- Well-appointed wellness center, spa, gym.
- Multiple observation decks and access points
- Most rooms have balconies
- 50% lower carbon footprint

Meeting the Polar Challenge, and Then Some
The futuristic X-Bow design of the Ocean Victory is more than just eye-catching. It’s also designed for total comfort and safety in even the roughest seas. And its superior 1A ice rating and Polar Class 6 mean it can push through deeper ice and deliver access to ever more remote and elusive areas. Onboard, spacious rooms, everywhere visibility, and seamless access to zodiacs (and the adventures to follow) all join forces to ensure a one-of-a-kind experience that will exceed your highest expectations.

From North to South, The Poles Stay Front and Center
The Ocean Victory is designed to keep Antarctica and the Arctic in full view, no matter where you are on the ship. Every stateroom provides a generous view, and most include private balconies. A variety of observation decks are accessible from multiple indoor locations. Two hydraulic platforms can be lowered to offer unprecedented near-water-level views (and rare photographic opportunities). Even the two outdoor Jacuzzis provide 360 views of the mesmerizing landscape that surrounds you.

A Measurable Reduction in Fuel Consumption
The Ocean Victory is powered by two diesel and two electro engines, controlled electronically to optimize speed and fuel efficiency. When compared to traditional expedition ships, this technology allows Ocean Victory to reduce its carbon footprint by 50%. And by implementing our Green Initiative Program, we ensure the highest standards for both maximum comfort and sustainability practices for our ship and for all our guests.
