- Capacity: Accommodates just 12 guests in eight outside cabins, creating one of the most intimate expedition experiences available anywhere in the Arctic.
- Expedition Team: Two experienced expedition guides lead Zodiac cruises, shore landings, wildlife encounters and engaging onboard presentations, giving the ship an exceptional guide-to-guest ratio.
- Crew: A professional crew of seven, including an experienced captain, engineer, chef and hospitality team, ensures a safe, comfortable and highly personalised voyage.
- Speed: Cruises at around 11 knots, providing the flexibility to adapt itineraries to wildlife sightings, sea ice and changing weather conditions.
