Viking Octantis
Viking Octantis, specifically designed as an expedition ship, prioritises wilderness exploration. The Hangar is a key feature, housing two submarines, Zodiacs, kayaks, and Special Operations Boats. With Zodiacs easily accessible on the lower deck, expeditions can swiftly commence in favourable weather conditions. With its sleek design, enhanced stability, and advanced technology, the ship guarantees a comfortable and secure voyage. U-tank stabilisers minimise rolling by 50% when the ship is stationary.
