Seasickness was yesterday

MS Greg Mortimer

Have you always wanted to go on an expedition cruise, but are afraid of getting seasick quickly (or at least you think so)? Then the MS Greg Mortimer - named after the legendary Australian adventurer and launched at the end of October - might be just the right ship for you! Thanks to the revolutionary "Ulstein X Bow", the new ice-skating vessel is particularly calm in the water and can take many a wave without rocking. Why is that? Because the water flows gently past the round, raised bow - which reminds some people of a whale and others of the nose of the Concorde - instead of breaking against it. Pleasant side effects: lower fuel consumption and a higher cruising speed. The luyuri-like MS Greg Mortimer was designed for a maximum of 160 passengers. It can currently only be booked via the Australian website www.auroraexpeditions.com.au
