Viking Octantis
Expedition vessels for Viking.
Especially designed and developed for comfortable expeditions in the Arctic, Antarctica and North America’s Great Lakes. The Viking Octantis has a length of 205 meters and is the largest vessel built by VARD so far,
Characteristics of the vessel are a straight bow, longer hull and state-of-the-art fin stabilizers that allows the ship to glide over the waves for the calmest possible journey. The ice-strengthened Polar Class 6 hull will provide the safest way to explore in polar regions, and the u-tank stabilizers will significantly decrease rolling when the ship is stationary.
